Boost Note.next v0.10.0-v0.10.1 has been released!

Edited: v0.10.2 has been published. Several bugs have been fixed.

Update Notes

  • Wiki App Mode
  • 2 toggles style edit mode select
  • Revamp backend of the cloud storage

Wiki App Mode

Now BoostNote.next provides an alternative app layout, “Wiki App Mode”. This will allow you to focus more on a single note. Also, you can switch the app mode whenever you want from preferences.

2 toggles style edit mode select

We also introduced the new edit mode selector because We’ve found that lots of new users are confused by the previous 3 buttons style selector. But you can always switch back to the previous UI from the context menu below(Right-click).

Revamp backend of the cloud storage

We migrated our cloud storage backend from a serverless platform to a conventional NodeJS server with a load balancer. It makes our cloud storage faster and more stable. Apparently, our usage doesn’t fit well into the serverless platform. So each API call was very slow and prone to throwing timeout errors. But after we migrated, the server consumes API calls relatively fast and efficiently.

What’s next?

Right now, we are planning to integrate BoostHub, which provides real-time co-authoring like Google Docs and more other features for a team or a company, into BoostNote.next desktop app for Nov 9th. If you want to know more about it, please try it now! It is already available from most browsers. https://boosthub.io/ Once it’s done, we will resolve all pending pull requests and improving the app internally and externally so you can feel the app is quite reliable.
