Introduction

MoreInfo is a personal knowledge base for macOS built around a simple idea: your notes should be plain Markdown files that you own, control, and can read anywhere. No proprietary formats, no accounts, no cloud lock-in.

What is MoreInfo?

MoreInfo is a Markdown-native app that lives on your Mac and stores everything as .md files in a folder of your choosing — your datastore. A fast SQLite cache keeps the app snappy, but it's a cache only: your Markdown files are always the source of truth. Delete the cache and rebuild it in seconds.

You get a full-featured editor, wiki-style linking between notes, task management, daily journals, inline calculations, full-text search, annotations, and widgets — all woven together from a single folder of text files.

The Philosophy

Most note-taking apps make you dependent on them. MoreInfo doesn't. Every note you write is a plain .md file readable by any text editor, version-controllable with git, and searchable with any tool on your system.

This matters because tools come and go, but your notes should last decades. By keeping everything in an open format, MoreInfo ensures that even if the app stops existing, your knowledge base doesn't.

What You'll Need

• macOS 13 Ventura or later — MoreInfo is a native macOS app built with Tauri and Rust
• Apple Silicon — universal binary available
• A folder to use as your datastore (anywhere on your disk, iCloud Drive, Dropbox, etc.)
