I built a terminal sticky notes app for Linux users

After I switched to linux recently, I started to like to get my things done in terminal so wanted a simple way to keep notes without switching to a GUI app. So I built a terminal-based sticky notes TUI focused on keyboard-first workflows and a clean interface.

Key Features:

• Keyboard-Centric: Navigate, add, edit, and delete notes without touching the mouse.
• Color Coding: 9 different color themes to organize thoughts visually (Hotkeys 1-9).
• Priorities & Pinning: Set priorities (Trivial to Critical) and pin important notes to the top.
• Search Modal: Filter notes instantly by title, content, or tags.
• Auto-Save: Data is persistent and saved to your OS's standard data directory (XDG on Linux).
• Modern Tooling: The project is managed with uv for fast and reliable dependency management.

Installation:

I included a helper script for Linux users to install it globally to /usr/local/bin:

Bash

git clone https://github.com/dengo07/textual-sticky-notes-tui cd sticky-notes-tui sudo ./manage.sh install 

Now you can just type stickynotes from anywhere.

I’d appreciate feedback from Linux and terminal users, especially around usability and whether this fits a real daily workflow.
