Real screenshots of NewTabNote in action β a block-based, Notion-style note editor that replaces your browser's new-tab page. 100% local, privacy-first, with an AI assistant and a fast keyboard-driven editor.
Captured from a development build of the extension's new-tab page. The bundled welcome note is shown as sample content.
Open a new tab and land in a full block-based workspace: a notes sidebar with search, a month calendar for daily notes, and a rich editor with headings, to-do items, code blocks, and more.
Type / in any empty block to bring up the block menu β Text, Headings, lists, code, and 18+ block types in total. Markdown shortcuts (#, -, >, ```) work too.
Tune the experience across General, Appearance, Editor, AI Configuration, Data & Backup, and Advanced. Appearance offers Light/Dark/System themes (plus a theme builder), font choices, and a live preview.
The editor in both light and dark modes β dark mode is built for nighttime use.
