About Orbit Notes

Orbit is a calm, local-first notes workspace built around connected thinking. Every note is a node in a graph you can explore visually. Use it for research, journaling, product specs, or the messy middle of a creative project. Sync across devices, publish selected notes, and never lose a thought to an app that gets in the way.

The graph view is the first one I have actually used day to day. It stays out of the way and the keyboard flow is excellent.

Shipped my entire research workflow into Orbit in one evening. The publish-a-note feature is a quiet superpower.

Local-first sync works exactly as advertised. I would love a quick capture shortcut on iOS, but the desktop experience is already better than what I was paying for.

How are backlinks handled when two devices edit the same note offline? Curious about the conflict model.

Been using this for two weeks — the command palette alone is worth the install.
