A Git based Notes app for Android with Markdown support and more! - It's also FOSS (fr this time)
Hello everyone!
CALL FOR CONTRIBUTORS
I have been working on a Markdown based, git synced notes app for android. Skipping any bs, here are the features that u can explore rn (albeit without polish):
Git based syncing (clone over https, pull, add (staging and unstaging), commit and push implemented)
Allowing storage of repositories on external storage (fr this time)
Markdown rendering supported, opening files in other apps supported using intent framework
Multiple repos supported by default
MIT license, no hidden subscription/donations... its FOSS (fr this time).
Here's what I have planned for the near future (if there is demand):
Customizing the way markdown looks and feels, from font to its color, size, weight, style, etc.
A polished ui with pretty animations.
Support for sharing, converting and editing files (not just markdown)
SSH support
Using GitHub auth and something similar on GitLab for easy cloning and stuff.
Here are some more ideas that are just ideas (I have no clue how I will implement them or unsure if it will be of any use):
Potentially add support for a pen based input using a tab/drawing pad. (for now onenote files can be used maybe?)
Let each repo have a .{app name} folder with various configuration files, these files could have app settings in them. This means, for example you can have the apps theme change for different repos.
I hear you ask the name of the app?
GitNotes or MarGitDown... I am not sure yet, suggestions are welcome!
Here is the GitHub link if you find this project interesting!
