FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How my notes are stored?
All notes in Plume are simple plain text strings under the hood. Right now, all these plain text strings are stored in a SQLite database locally on your computer. But we have plans to remove the reliance on a custom database and to store all notes as simple .txt files inside a folder.
