Bojji
Free, open-source notes and tasks that live in your own GitHub account.
No subscription and no Bojji servers holding your data. Each note and task is a plain Markdown file in a private repository you own, so you get full version history and can read everything without Bojji.
Try the demo: it runs on sample data and saves nothing.
What it does
- Tasks with due dates, in Today, Week schedule (Monday to Sunday, including the days that already passed), All tasks and Completed.
- Notes in Markdown. Headings and lists render in place, and the file stays plain text.
- Tags on tasks and notes, each with its own colour. Click a tag to see everything with it: open tasks, notes, then completed tasks.
- Sync you can see. Every change settles to "Kept in your GitHub", which links to your storage. If another device changed the same item first, Bojji reloads instead of overwriting.
- Light and dark mode, and a one-pane layout at phone width.
How your data is stored
Your notes and tasks go in a separate private repository in your account, bojji-data by default, never in this code repository. Each item is one file:
tasks/mvr340e4-d88hk7.md

Bojji talks to the GitHub API directly from your browser, and every save is a commit.
Run it
Bojji is early: "Sign in with GitHub" for everyone isn't built yet. For now it runs on your own machine using your GitHub CLI login.
Requires Node 22+ and the GitHub CLI, logged in (gh auth login).
npm start # open http://localhost:5173
npm run smoke # end-to-end test against GitHub (uses bojji-dryrun-data, cleans up after itself)
The first run creates the private bojji-data repository in your account. Set BOJJI_REPO=<name> to use a different one.
Roadmap
- Sign in with GitHub, so Bojji can be hosted for anyone
- Offline edits that sync later
- Renaming and merging tags
- Native iOS and Android apps
