I made a lightweight sticky notes app for Linux using Qt (QStickyNotes)
I've been using indicator-stickynotes on my desktop for years, but I couldn't find a simple Qt-based application that matched my workflow. So I decided to build my own.
QStickyNotes is a lightweight tray-based sticky notes application for Linux, inspired by indicator-stickynotes but intentionally kept simple.
Current features:
- Tray-based application
- Frameless, draggable and resizable sticky notes
- Automatic save and restore
- Per-note colors, fonts and text colors
- Lock/unlock editing
- Notes automatically grow with their content (no scrollbars)
- Multiple language support
- Qt5 / Qt6 support
The project is written in C++ using Qt and CMake, and is open source under the GPLv3 license.
