Desktop App Pick

Standard Notes – standard notes app, un-standard every other way.

A proof of concept collaborative text editor with end-to-end encryption. Simply share the URL with anyone you want to collaborate with.

The URL contains a unique, random identifier for the document, as well as an encryption key and edit token. Since the encryption key follows the # symbol, it is never sent to the server.

Edits to the document are end-to-end encrypted, meaning what you type is encrypted locally before being sent to the server and other users.

Other collaborators do not need Standard Notes to view the document. To allow others to edit the document, share the “Editing URL”. For viewing access only, share the “Viewing URL”.
