Good to know.
How saving, backups, and offline access work.
Do I need an account?
No. It’s free, and you can start writing as soon as you open it. Choose Everyday notes for a simpler layout, or Notes & code if you want the code tools too. Both layouts let you choose and search for a note’s language.
Are my notes sent to a server?
No. Textburrow has no note-upload service, cloud note storage, or account. Your notes save in this browser and the editing tools run on your device. Read how privacy, previews, and local backups work.
Where are my notes saved?
Your notes and settings are saved in this browser, on this device. They won’t appear in another browser or on another device unless you move them using a backup.
Can I use the notebook offline?
Yes. Open the app online first so it can save the files it needs for offline use. Once that’s finished, you can reopen it in the same browser without an internet connection. Supported browsers also let you install it as an app. Read the offline setup guide.
Can I use it for code and JSON?
Yes. Alongside Markdown notes, you can save code snippets, format supported code and SQL, view JSON as a table, and compare text side by side.
Which languages can I write in?
There are 19 modes: Markdown, Plain Text, TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, SQL, JSON, HTML, CSS, Bash/Shell, C++, Rust, YAML, TOML, Go, Terraform/HCL, Java, C#, and PowerShell. Search the language chooser by name or file extension, such as .py, .yml, or .tf. Formatting is available for supported languages, including YAML and SQL. Explore the editors and language examples.
How do I back up or move my notebook?
Open Settings → Backup & Restore to download a backup of your notebook. Import that file in another browser to move your notes. You can also download notes individually or export JSON tables as CSV.
