I think gruik is based on laverna.cc right? Laverna supports encrypted notes with sjcl library. Laverna seems to have some additional features, but the UI is terrible, I like the UI of gruik much better :)

Well, it's a from scratch project so nothing based on laverna.

I agree with you, I tried Laverna before creating Gruik and the encryption system is nice, I really want to put it on this project (for me it's not a feature, really a must-have before a release), thank you for library name, I'll investigate :)

Aaaah sorry, I misread Laravel for Laverna so I thought it was based on Laverna. Good work! I agree, encryption should be a must-have :)

I don't have much time now, but I would like to contribute. The problem is that php is not my main language, I'm more of a Java guy, although I could help with Javascript and UI stuff.

Have you posted this to Hacker News (http://news.ycombinator.com) ? It would get a lot of attention and probably contributions.

Also, I saw another noteworthy project, BetterNote

(https://github.com/shubik22/BetterNote)

which clones the UI of Evernote, but lacks the very important ability to create private notes.

Also, I've seen OpenNotes which is really awful and basic, and TagSpaces, which is a different beast, meant for local use.

So IMHO there's a gap in the OpenSource space that and, although missing some things, the 2 projects which I find to be more interesting are Gruik and BetterNote, but the latter doesn't seem very interested in pushing things forward.

Again, being open source and having the time I (or for the matter, anyone) could try to push it forward.

I second this!
