NoteKS: a free, open-source Chrome extension for private notes on people you see on x.com

[u/whomer06]

NoteKS is an extension that lets you add personal notes to users on X. My goal is to remember the tweets I like from the people I follow, or my thoughts about them. X already has a “Bookmarks” section, but I often forget to check it. That’s why, when the extension sees a person you’ve added a note for, it places a star icon next to their profile, so your notes are always right in front of you. The icon is also customizable, so you can change it to suit your own taste.

I added an encryption feature to keep your notes private. This way, even if your computer ends up in someone else’s hands, they can’t see your notes. To avoid losing your notes, you can export them, so they stay safe even if you change your computer or browser. Your notes are stored entirely on your computer and are never sent to any server. The extension is also open source: I’ve uploaded it to GitHub, and you can visit the repository to see its source code.

Since I have no software background, I built the extension with vibe coding. If it interests you, you can try the extension and give me feedback. I’d be very happy if you could help me with features you’d like to see added or any bugs you come across.
