What is Pangolin?
Pangolin is an open-source, cross-platform Notetaking application developed by Pangolin Technologies Inc. It allows users to create rich text notes that support formatting options like bold, italics, highlighting, bullet points, etc.
Some key features of Pangolin include:
- Wiki-style links - You can link notes together like a personal wiki for connected thought.
- Notebooks - Organize notes into notebooks and tag notes for easy search and retrieval.
- End-to-End encryption - Notes are encrypted locally before syncing to the cloud for security.
- Backups - Notes can be backed up to most major cloud storage providers.
- Cross-platform - Native apps for Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS and Android.
- Open-source - Developers can contribute and audit the code on GitHub.
Pangolin competes with other Notetaking apps like Evernote, OneNote, Joplin, etc. Its main differentiator is the focus on security via end-to-end encryption. The open-source license can also appeal to privacy-focused users.
