About

Plainva is a local-first, open-source Markdown editor designed for users who want to keep their notes in plain Markdown files, synced through their own cloud storage (like Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, or WebDAV/Nextcloud). It allows users to open existing Obsidian vaults directly, build Notion-style databases over plain notes, and offers features like a graph view, full-text search, and daily backups without requiring an account, telemetry, or vendor lock-in. The project is funded by grants and individual contributions, not investors.
