Offline-First Design
WebColorNote is built from the ground up to be offline-first. All of your notes, folders, tags, and settings are stored locally in your browser's local sandbox environment (using localStorage and IndexDB systems). Your personal notes and thoughts never leave your browser unless you decide to backup or sync them explicitly.
Secure Google Cloud Sync
You can seamlessly synchronize your workspace across multiple devices using your own Google Drive account. WebColorNote communicates directly with Google servers through secure OAuth credentials. It creates a dedicated application configuration space on your Drive container, ensuring no middleman, telemetry servers, or developer keys ever gain access to your private documents.
End-to-End Vault Encryption Critical
For absolute safety, you can encrypt your entire note collection using a private master password using highly secure **AES-256-GCM** vault algorithms right within your browser before any sync cycle takes place. Your master password is never stored locally or remotely.
Password Loss Warning
If you lose or forget your master password, your notes will become permanently unrecoverable. Because we do not run middleman databases or user directory accounts, there are zero server reset options. Please regularly export your documents as an unencrypted JSON backup to keep them perfectly safe in a separate vault location.Supported Import Formats
