Features
Auto-Save to Browser
Every keystroke is auto-saved to your browser's localStorage within 1.8s. Notes persist between sessions — no account, no server needed for local use.
Markdown Support
Enable the MD toggle to write in Markdown with live preview. Switch between Edit, Split, and Preview modes. Renders headings, code blocks, tables, and more.
Shareable Links
Upload any note to the server and get a unique link to share. Recipients can view the note instantly — no account required. You keep edit rights via the same browser.
PIN Protection
Add a 4-digit PIN to any shared note. Only people who know the PIN can open it. PIN is stored as a PBKDF2 hash — never in plain text.

Full Screen Mode
Click the Full Screen button to turn the notepad into an immersive full-page editor with no distractions. Press Escape or click Exit to return to normal view.

Why NoteX is the Best Choice

Zero Setup, Works Instantly

No installation, no registration, no waiting. Open the page, start writing. Your notes are saved to localStorage immediately — no internet required for local notes.

Privacy First

Local notes never leave your device. Shared notes use server-side PBKDF2 PIN hashing. We never store plain-text PINs or personal identifiers.

True Multi-Language Support

Full Unicode support for every language. Instant RTL/LTR toggle per note. Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, and all other writing systems work perfectly out of the box.

Markdown Without Compromise

Full CommonMark Markdown with Split and Preview modes. Use the toolbar buttons for quick formatting or type Markdown syntax directly — both work seamlessly together.
