This notepad application lets website visitors create, edit, and delete notes directly in their web browser (for example, Firefox, Chrome). There are no accounts, service logins, or downloads required; the data lives only on the device where it was created, ensuring privacy and simplicity.
The site consists of four pages:
- index.html – Home page with options to view, edit, or create notes.
- new_note.html – Create a new note.
- edit_note.html – Edit an existing note.
- about.html – Information about the application.
One stylesheet (notes.css) and one main JavaScript file (storage.js) control the app’s functions. Bootstrap 5 is used for layout and styling.
- Erase All Notes: Delete all saved notes.
- View/Edit: Opens a note for viewing or editing.
- Delete/Remove: Erases a single selected note.
- Save: Save a newly created or edited note.
The app uses the browser’s HTML5 localStorage to save notes, with storage capacity varying depending on the browser and device. Storage typically ranges from 2 to 10 MB, allowing for multiple notes while respecting each device’s limitations.
Functionality: A lightweight, browser-based notepad app for local note-taking.
