Have you considered packaging this as a Chrome extension rather than an electron app? AFAICT this is about 80KB of uncompressed html+css+js, released as a colossal 192MB electron app. Sorry to sound all get-off-my-lawn but that seems a tad excessive for a note taker.

I have thought about an eventual web version but more as a visualization tool for sharing files over the internet.

The idea was to be an offline-first app for privacy reasons, but I'll take a look at the file system support in the browser extension API, it might be a more accessible alternative.

Have a look at https://100r.co for an example of how they do offline-first html only web apps. DotGrid is a very interesting example.
