👋 Hey Product Hunt community! Thrilled to be relaunching today with what is essentially a brand new app. When we launched the first version of PeekNote, the feedback was incredible. You loved the concept of a floating, always-available note-taking window for Mac. But you also told us what you really needed: more power, more flexibility, and deeper integration into your workflow. So, we went back to the drawing board. PeekNote 2.0 isn't just an update; it's a full rewrite and reimagining. Here’s what that means: ➡️ SwiftUI Rewrite: For a faster, smoother, and more native Mac experience. ➡️ Refreshed UI: smoother tab navigation, cleaner design, improved “copy” banner ➡️ Better editing: no more cursor jumps, autosizing text editor, seamless edits ➡️ Data persistence: notes and tabs are always saved and restored reliably ➡️ Bug fixes and performance improvements We built this for developers, writers, designers, and anyone who lives in their workflow and needs a frictionless way to keep notes, code snippets, and tasks at their fingertips. We'd love for you to check out and let us know what you think. I'm here all day to answer any questions!

Great idea. It's a huge pain to manage copy and pastes :)

@ivanpalii Exactly, Ivan! PeekNote makes copy-paste hassle free, one click to save, one click to copy. Thanks for support :)

Congrats on 2.0! Love how you’ve turned feedback into a full reimagining rather than just a patch. That kind of rewrite is rarely “sexy,” but it’s usually what makes tools actually stick long-term.

While building Escape Velocity AI (different domain, business planning), I’ve noticed the same pattern: people value reliability and flow over flashy features. Do you see PeekNote being picked up more by devs who live in code, or by general productivity folks? I know you mentioned both in the description, but I'd be curious to know on which ICP you want to focus more

@andreitudor14 Right now PeekNote resonates a bit more with devs (quick code snippets, notes while debugging), but I also see strong pull from productivity folks. I’m still exploring which ICP will stick long term.

@meltedmen The rewrite sounds massive! I'm drowning in sticky notes and random .txt files everywhere 😅 My desktop looks like a crime scene.Quick question - does it handle code snippets well? I'm constantly copy-pasting API keys and SQL queries between projects. The always-on-top thing could be a lifesaver for that workflow."

@alex_chu821Yes, absolutely, no problem at all. You can paste 1000+ lines of code, close and reopen the app, and it’ll all still be right there.

@meltedmen Perfect! That's exactly what I need. Reliable persistence is make-or-break for note apps - nothing worse than losing important snippets.

Definitely going to give this a try for my code management chaos.

Congrats and great job!

It's a shame I can't use it on ventura :(
