Classic Notepad

A free, offline-feeling notepad that opens in Chrome's side panel. No signup, no sync — your text never leaves your browser.

Classic Notepad puts a plain, distraction-free text editor one click away in Chrome's side panel, right next to whatever page you're reading. No toolbars or menus, just a page to type on. - Opens instantly in the side panel, beside the page you're on - Autosaves as you type. Close the panel and your text is still there when you reopen it - The keyboard shortcuts you already know: Ctrl+F find, Ctrl+H replace, Ctrl+G go to line, F5 time/date, Ctrl+S save to a .txt file, Ctrl+O open one, Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Y undo and redo, Ctrl+plus / Ctrl+minus zoom - Light and dark themes that follow your system, or pick one with the small dot in the corner - No account, no sign-in, no sync, no ads, no tracking - Your notes are stored only in this extension's own local browser storage. Nothing is ever sent anywhere. This is the side panel edition of classicnotepad.com. For the full version, with menus, multiple windows, a desktop-style layout and printing, visit classicnotepad.com in a normal tab.
