Blobly

Blobly is a personal journaling app that provides a simple and private space for users to write daily entries. It offers features like markdown support, tags, and search, with a focus on data privacy and offline usage. The app is available as a progressive web application and as a native mobile app.

Background

- Blobly is a minimalist note-taking web app built by Anton Medvedev, the creator of the popular developer tool Monkey. The site is entirely static and lives as a single blob (HTML file).<br>- Notes are stored in the browser's cache (via localStorage) and never touch a server — so there are no accounts, logins, or cloud storage. Open the app, type, and it saves automatically into your browser's memory.<br>- This "no-server" design makes it a software demo (or "toy") rather than a production service; it shows what can be done with modern browser APIs without a backend.
