Love it! The name, the design, the concept, the open source codebase, everything! It’s less like a note taking app and more like a diary writing app. I think that’s very neat and has its own niche.
Love the local-first, browser-based nature of it. If you ever consider making a native app for it, consider looking at antinote (https://antinote.io/). Been using it for over a year. It’s the only notes app that I haven’t uninstalled or forgotten about. I think the simplicity of it is what draws me to it. I feel it aligns with your philosophy for this app!
Thanks for sharing Ichinichi with the world!

If you like the open-source codebase, then why are you peddling your closed-source paid platform?

You're allowed to like both. Antinote is very unique, and devs should be allowed to charge for their work if it's a quality app with a really polished UX.
Also, its not theirs.

I really like the idea, and I've actually built something similar. Please format the writing in the post sound less gpt-esque; I believe in the tool you're making and I believe it will improve marketing to people that share my aversion to that writing style.

The entire docs is gpt/claude-esque. It's gonna take a significant amount of work rewriting it all, all for a free tool.
I think it fits fine with the type of app this is. Sure some people might be slightly put off, and there is a bit of fluff sprinkled in everywhere, but I think it's fine.

Very cool! I'm curious as to why you removed ProseMirror after trying it out. I've been building my own writing app for a different purpose over the last month and have been pretty happy with PM, but I'd be curious to know what you're using instead.

As someone else building a notes app, I went with CodeMirror because I enjoy the feature-set of the obsidian editor (which is CodeMirror), and I'm trying to emulate the features on that that I use the most, in addition to some more "experimental" features I'm currently playing with.
Personally, I really don't enjoy WYSIWIG editors when writing notes. It's just unnecessarily different compared to what I'm used to. Though I can see non-devs enjoying it more.

The read-only past is a really smart design choice. I build local-first apps and it's always tempting to add edit-everything flexibility, but constraints like this are what keep a tool focused and actually useful.
How does the Supabase sync work with the E2E encryption? Client-side encrypt before anything leaves the browser?

Thanks!
Exactly, client encrypts before syncing. Decryption keys are wrapped/encrypted with your password. If you change the password, only the decryption keys are re-encrypted, not your notes.

Nice, and I like the idea that the past is fixed, but ... is there a way to define the point of rollover to the next day? My "days" sometimes end at 0:50 for example and not at 23:59. So I might summarize the day a bit after midnight.

Good idea, I can do that!

If you want to avoid too much choice, but still want the "the past is immutable" feel, you can prevent editing after noon next day or similar.

How does the E2E work in terms of user flow? I assume a you need a password?
Do you need to enter the password every time you open this?
