WebNote is a simple webapp that allows you to save notes on your webserver and access them through your browser. It requires PHP and the permission to read/write files on the server side. The frontend is written in HTML5 and has been tested in Firefox 17 and Chrome 22.

It uses hallo.js 1.0 to make the notes editable. A list of all dependencies is found at the bottom.

WebNote is available on GitHub

Demo
username: demo
password: webnote

1. Change username and password in the .htpasswd file in the root directory. Find a htpasswd generator or use htpasswd -n username in a linux terminal. Also Adjust the path to your .htpasswd file in .htaccess.
2. Adjust the settings in config.php.
3. Upload all files to your Server
4. Set the permissions of the folder "notes" and all its sub-folders and files to 777
5. Open the app in a browser.

For now it is not possible to have multiple user on a single installation of WebNote, but it is planned for future releases. Also in the current version, the login is a simple .htpasswd protection. Without the protection WebNote is available (readable and editable) for everybody, which is not recommended. A better login feature is planned for future releases.

Currently, notes are displayed in alphabetical order. If a new note is created or renamed its position might change when reloading the page. In future releases it should be possible to position the notes freely on the screen.

Markdown support is experimental and its not enabled by default (you can change it in config.php). One aim is to have stable markdown support some day. But it is already usable in the current state. Currently, notes are saved as html by default. Saving as .txt is also possible but text formatting will be lost.
