CanvasNote

CanvasNote is an open-source application for Linux in the Photo & Graphics category. It lets users write or sketch directly with a stylus. The application is intended for handwritten notes and drawings created on a Linux device.

It provides several tools for different writing and drawing tasks, including a pen, pencil, highlighter, and eraser. Users can switch between these tools when creating or adjusting notes and sketches. Palm rejection supports resting the hand on the device while drawing or taking notes.

CanvasNote organizes material through subjects and pages. Subjects keep related notes or drawings together, while pages separate distinct pieces of material within that structure. Notes and drawings can be exported as PDF files.

Its open-source license and Linux platform make CanvasNote relevant to users seeking source-available software in that environment. MirrorNest mirrors the official build directly onto its own storage. The mirrored build is scanned for malware before publication, providing a checked source for obtaining the application.
