// about this project
Rough Notes.
A focused workspace for thoughts that don't need a filing system. No accounts, no sync, no noise.
01
How it began
/**
* Most note apps want you to organise before you think —
* folders, tags, workspaces, sync setup.
*
* I wanted the opposite: open it, start writing,
* nothing in the way.
*/
// notes float freely — like scraps on a desk
// stack · scatter · minimize · close · restore
const workspace = {
databases: false,
accounts: false,
cloudOverhead: false,
storage: "localStorage",
theme: "warm stone + orange",
}
// rough_draw.init() — when thought needs shape, not words
import { RoughDraw } from "same-philosophy"
// get out of the way. let the work happen.

Design philosophy
zero_friction()
Open, write. No onboarding, no decisions.
local_first()
Stays in your browser. Nothing leaves your device.
minimal_complete()
Every feature earns its place. Nothing missing.
considered_defaults()
Warm stone theme, Syne + Jakarta — deliberate.

I build things that feel considered. Rough Notes started as a personal tool and grew into something I wanted to share — quietly, without a launch, without a Product Hunt post. Just a link.
