Set

Set is a simple Markdown based note-taking app that stores all your documents locally as Markdown files.

Features

• Block editor: headings, lists, to-dos, toggles, quotes, code blocks, tables, images and links, with a / command menu and Markdown shortcuts
• Nested pages in a sidebar tree, reordered by drag and drop
• Contexts: separate top-level folders, each with its own page tree, that you switch between
• Every page is a plain Markdown file in a folder you choose; changes made outside Set are picked up
• Quick switcher (⌘K) that searches page titles and content
• Page locking, and trash with restore
• Device-to-device sync with no server or account
• Local MCP server so agents can search and read your notes
• Optional on-device dictation
• Light and dark themes, accent colors, font options and rebindable shortcuts
• Runs on macOS, Windows and Linux, plus a web only build

Built with

• Tauri 2 (Rust)

• TipTap (ProseMirror) for the editor
