Didn’t even know that this existed. Will have to try. Thumbs up for using mark up which makes it easy to export/import notes.
It’s pretty knew and still in incubator, so it’s not well known.
I started the project partially to learn markdown, and I quickly found out that this was a really cool format to deal with
Let me know what you think about it when you try it ;-)
I’m open to discuss on here to :-)
So I wanted to give Klevernotes a try tonight but:
- it doesn’t show up in Discover when searching for any of the terms
Klevernotes
,Klever Notes
, or justklever
. On the command lineapt search klevernotes
returns an empty result set. - the
install on Linux
link on https://apps.kde.org/klevernotes/ doesn’t work either. It opens Discover but yields the error message Could not open appstream://org.kde.klevernotes because it was not found in any available software repositories. Please report this issue to the packagers of your distribution. - I tried building it myself via the instructions on the GitHub repo but got stuck among the way. Building binaries is a bit beyond my expertise unfortunately.
I’m on Kubuntu 22.04 with KDE Plasma 5.24.7 in case that matters. Can also file an official bug report as the error message suggests if you advocate for it.
Thanks you for wanting to give it a try, and also to explain the issue clearly without being agressive, that really nice to see.
Klevernotes is a new project (± 1 year old) and doesn’t have a package right now (working on flatpak). So it’s pretty normal to not find it in Discover nor apt.
You guessed it right, you need to compile the project to test it.
I can try to guide you on how to use kde-src build to build klevernotes, but that might be a bit overkill since it will build every dependencies (useful for devs, a bit less for user). Or I can let you know when the flatpak is ready.
I’ll wait for the flatpak in that case. Too many other things I also want to do these days 😀.
I’ll let you know when I get it to work ;-)

Btw, look at this!
I already know this project.
At the very beginning I was doing things the same way (it’s based on an example project from QT) but it was to limiting for what I wanted to do.
Now that I have more experience I could maybe revisit the code to see if I could use it for wysiwyg. Thanks for the reminder.
Interesting, I will wait until it appears on Flathub and compare them!
I plan to move the wysiwyg part to a library (probably Kirigami Addons) so that it can be easily reused by other projects.
Great ! If I remember correctly I had issue mainly with images. It would be cool to have good support for that. I could find workaround for other thing if needed.

Great!
Never heard of it but seems really nice. Good work
It’s been roughly a year since it has been added to the KDE incubator, and I started working on it like 2-3 months before that, so it’s fearly new.
And thanks, I’m working hard to improve it even more ;-)
