Wow! I was thinking the same notes app like a month or two ago, even tried to create it! Can you open-source it? So we can contribute, and make it self hosted?

the code is quite embarrassing, imagine backend engineer writing frontend with the help of AI :) but since it's a common request, I'll consider it

All code is embarrassing, and there will always be someone that comes along to ask "wow, why did you write THIS in this way? I wouldn't have done it that way!"

I went ahead and created the app with Claude 3.7, backend is in Go, frontend is in React. Sqlite is used for storage.

There is also a docker-compose file.

Anyone can contribute

thanks for that!
