NoteBlob is a free and opensource markdown note editor for ios and macos backed by git. No proprietary formats, no complex versioning ; just a clean git client built for note taking and AI integration. ## WHY ANOTHER NOTE APP? Notes can be confidential and personal, yet note editors usually rely on opaque technologies and, at some point, a payment system. Notes should be easy to edit, versioned, independent of any company, exportable, and confidential. Moreover, in the age of AI, your notes should be model-readable and ready to process. NoteBlob fixes that by relying on something other than itself: at its core, it uses Git and Markdown, the most universal, well-known technologies for editing and backing up data. NoteBlob is simply an interface that makes the experience more user-friendly and iOS-compatible. It provides no custom mechanism or technology, the source of truth remains your Markdown files and your Git repository. Tired of it? Just delete the app; your notes stay in your Git repo as plain Markdown files. ## FEATURES - Markdown editor with a powerful live preview and a fast native editor - GitHub sync a straightforward commit, push, and merge workflow - Full-text search across all your notes / folders - Plugins enhance user experience by importing JS modules. -- Mermaid -- Syntax highlighting And more

TextuLite is a focused text utility for iPhone and iPad. Open a document from Files, paste from the clipboard, or send text and displayed page content from another app through the Share sheet. INSPECT AND RESHAPE TEXT • Apply practical transformations for JSON formatting, Base64, URLs, HTML entities, letter case, line cleanup, sorting, deduplication, ROT13, and more. • Transform selected text or the entire source. • Copy, save, or share the result, or replace the source and continue transforming. UNDERSTAND STRUCTURED DATA • Browse valid JSON and XML as expandable trees. • Expand or collapse the full tree and see the selected node’s JSONPath or XPath. • Switch back to the editable source whenever you need it. PREVIEW AND EXPORT • Render Markdown, Mermaid diagrams, SVG, and HTML. • Export rendered documents as standalone HTML or PDF. • Mermaid diagrams are embedded as inline SVG in exported HTML, so recipients do not need TextuLite to view them. • Save or share source text and transformed results as named files. BUILT FOR MOBILE WORKFLOWS TextuLite concentrates on the parts of desktop Textulon that fit naturally on iPhone and iPad: quickly receiving text, inspecting it, transforming it, previewing it, and sending it onward. It works as both a standalone app and a Share Extension in Safari, Files, and other compatible apps. TextuLite is a mobile version of Textulon for the Mac, which is Stream-Deck enabled via the Mac-A-Tron plug-in. PRIVATE BY DESIGN TextuLite has no accounts, advertising, analytics, or tracking. Text and documents are processed on your device and are not uploaded to us.
