Heynote Jonatan Heyman
winget install --id=JonatanHeyman.Heynote -e Heynote is a dedicated scratchpad for developers. It functions as a large persistent text buffer where you can write down anything you like. Works great for that Slack message you don't want to accidentally send, a JSON response from an API you're working with, notes from a meeting, your daily to-do list, etc. The Heynote buffer is divided into blocks, and each block can have its own Language set (e.g. JavaScript, JSON, Markdown, etc.). This gives you syntax highlighting and lets you auto-format that JSON response. Available for Mac, Windows, and Linux.
Heynote is a dedicated scratchpad for developers designed to serve as a large, persistent text buffer where you can jot down ideas, messages, API responses, meeting notes, or daily tasks. Its core functionality allows developers to create and manage blocks of text, each with its own language set (e.g., JavaScript, JSON, Markdown), enabling syntax highlighting and auto-formatting for cleaner code organization.
Key Features:
- Blocks with Syntax Highlighting: Organize content into blocks, each with its own language setting for tailored formatting and syntax support.
- Math Blocks for Calculations: Use math blocks as scratch pads for quick calculations, variable definitions, function creation, or unit conversions, including currency calculations.
- Multiple Buffers: Create unlimited buffers to organize notes by project or task, with the ability to switch between them quickly using keyboard shortcuts.
- Directory Organization: Buffers can be grouped into directories, and each buffer is saved as a file on disk for easy access and management.
Audience & Benefit: Ideal for developers seeking a reliable tool to jot down ideas, manage API responses, or keep track of daily tasks. Heynote helps users stay organized, reduce errors with syntax highlighting, perform quick calculations, and easily manage notes across multiple projects. Available for Mac, Windows, and Linux, it can be installed via winget on supported platforms.
