Overview
Blinko is a self-hosted note-taking app built around short cards, made for people who want to jot down fleeting thoughts quickly and find them again later. Notes are stored as plain text with Markdown support, on your own server.
What it does well
Blinko uses retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), so you can search your notes in natural language. Your notes and data stay in your self-hosted environment. It's built with Tauri and has apps for macOS, Windows, Linux and Android, and you can start it with Docker using a one-line install script.
Why it’s in the collection
Blinko is a lightweight, private home for quick thoughts, with AI search that helps you find them again. It's GPL-licensed.
