Local Notes History – Privacy-first Notes manager

I built a notes history manager that stores everything locally in your browser (IndexedDB). No server, no tracking, no accounts. Features: Search through your notes history Tag and organize notes Version history with visual diffs Optional password encryption Dark/sepia themes Export/import your data It's just a single HTML file (~30KB), so you can download it and run it locally, or use it at https://anan.guru I made this because I wanted notes history on my work machine without installing software or sending my data to the cloud. Figured others might find it useful too. The UI is inspired by Swiss design principles – clean, functional, minimal. Open to feedback!
