Getting started: How to start with Znote

 

✨ Welcome to Znote — Your Dev Notebook Supercharged with AI ⚡️

Znote isn’t just a notebook. It’s your thinking lab, your coding playground, and your AI assistant — all in one, on your machine.

🧠 Take notes. 💬 Talk with AI. 🧪 Run code. 📊 Visualize data. 🔐 All with full privacy and no cloud dependency.


💡 What Makes Znote Different?

AI-native notes: Ask questions, summarize, translate — right inside your document. ✅ Executable code blocks: Run JavaScript or Bash inline. No context-switching. ✅ Charts & data tools: Build and share visual reports in seconds. ✅ Transcriptions: Record meetings, auto-summarize instantly. ✅ Works offline: Bring your own AI (OpenAI, Claude, Ollama…) or use none. ✅ No vendor lock-in: Files are local. You keep control.


🔥 Quick Wins — Try This Now

🧠 Ask AI in your note

“Can you summarize this meeting?” “Write a blog post outline based on this idea.” “Explain this code.”

Try asking anything. Znote responds right in your document.


📈 Instant Chart

areaChart({
  series: [{ name: 'Visitors', data: [50, 80, 120, 100, 130] }],
  categories: ['Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday']
});

💻 Run JS or Bash Code

const response = await fetch('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users');
const data = await response.json();
showDatagrid({ data: data.map(e => flatten(e)), pagination: true });

🔍 Transcribe Audio (optional)
