A minimal, instant-open scratchpad for your thoughts.

rosenotes removes the friction between thinking and writing. It opens instantly, focuses your cursor, saves your data automatically, and vanishes when you are done.

• Instant Focus: Opens in the center of the screen with the cursor active.
• Auto-Save: Saves to disk on every keystroke and on exit.
• Keyboard First: Press Esc to quit immediately.
• Plain Text: Your notes are stored in a simple rosenotes.txt file.

Ensure you have Rust installed.

1. Clone or create the project:

   git clone https://github.com/SarahRoseLives/RoseNotes.git
   cd rosenotes

2. Run the app:

   cargo run --release

3. Build a standalone executable:

   cargo build --release

   The binary will be located in ./target/release/rosenotes.

Your notes are saved to: ./rosenotes.txt (relative to where the executable is run).
