Notee

Notee is python CLI that is able to fully replace your note making app or just be your fast way to create notes in terminal with additional functionality.

Sometimes I have an idea that comes from nowhere and to note it I have to open my obsidian app, create file and only then write my note, it's too slow. I created python CLI that will allow you to start writing your notes just after one command of 9 characters. Also there is functionality like ai module or search with vector database included.

Technologies

• Typer - to realize CLI functionality.
• Chroma DB - vector db for AI context and extendet search through your notes.
• MdUtils - for the md files creation.
• Rich - to make prints prettier.

How to use

! Requires python version between 3.12-3.14, it might work on older ones but won't work on 1.14.. because of chroma db bug

1. Install package by running pipx install notee.
2. Run notee setup and go throught instuctions in the console.

Done! Now you can use it freely🎉
