Attention is a place.
Make enough room for the useful thought to arrive.
Keep the source close. Leave the path back visible.

NOTIKER / DESKTOP NOTES FOR MAC
Your thinking desk,
kept local.
Capture quickly, write calmly, and find the thread again. Notiker is a Mac desktop app built around local storage, portable Markdown, and explicit choices.
Local-only means local-only.
There is no hosted Notiker workspace at notiker.com. The app and your library stay on your Mac, and builds are managed through GitHub Releases.
