Create your first note

After signing in, you’ll see your notes dashboard. Click Create New Note to get started.Note properties:
  • Title - Give your note a descriptive name
  • Content - Use the rich text editor to write and format
  • Visibility - Choose who can see your note:
// Visibility options from schema.prisma:70
enum Visibility {
  Public   // Anyone can view
  Private  // Only you can see
  Shared   // Specific users with permissions
}
Start with a Private note while you’re getting familiar with the editor. You can always change the visibility later.
The editor auto-saves your changes every second, so you never have to worry about losing your work.

Common questions

Noteverse requires an internet connection for real-time collaboration features. However, your browser may cache content for brief offline viewing.
There’s no hard limit on concurrent editors, but we recommend keeping active collaborators under 10 for optimal performance.
Currently, notes are stored in the platform. Export functionality is planned for a future release.
Socket.IO handles conflict resolution automatically. The last edit wins, and all users see the final result in real-time.
Remember to verify your email address to unlock full account features including note sharing and public note publishing.
