About the Project
Originally, a colleague at work gave me the idea. He pointed out some flaws in Google Keep and expressed the desire for a better solution, including some basic features.
This got me thinking and I kicked off the project. The goal? A minimalist, user-friendly interface and a few unique features.
I can already hear everyone thinking:
Great, Daniel! Another grain of sand on the beach.
But let's wait and see what features I have planned.
Features
- End-to-End Encryption
- Sharing of journals
- Sequential journals
- Automated time and location details for each entry
- AI integration that responds based on your entries (ChatGPT, but it knows all your thoughts)
- Entries can be tagged
...and a few other minor features that are nonetheless impactful.
As the saying goes, ideas are dime a dozen; it's all about execution.
Technologies
Since I've become quite a fan of NextJS in my other projects since Solun, I had to use it here as well.
- NextJS
- MongoDB
Progress
So where's my super-cool diary app?
Before anyone thinks I'm the kind of guy who puts projects on ice, let me clarify: They are definitely in the pipeline. (Juggling a 9-to-5 job and personal visions isn't always easy.)
