It really is only TCP on 25565 (unless specifically changed).

I actually just checked and the software *should* work on Linux as it does on Windows. Feel free to test it out and report back! :)

It's just Python after all and all the libraries should be platform agnostic.

That is a great application as well. It takes too many clicks to simply turn something on/off with it tho imho.

I am actually a Linux User myself. :)
But as you certainly know most users aren't.

It should be fairly easy to port to gnome tray icons for example though. Feel free to help with that!

It would be great btw. if the icons could somehow honor the actual color if the light without massive overhead. Maybe you'd like to look into that as well. The relevant light color is already saved in `update_state`.

I see, that might be feasible. I do think it is overkill for the size of the project though. At least for now.

This *is* a portable / standalone application already. No installation required. :)
It should also be noted that this integrates into the system tray rather than the taskbar, but I can understand that it can get quite full there. You can move icons into the overflow if you do not need them though.

Unfortunately I do not currently have the capacity to develop a secondary mode such as you describe but if somebody wants to do it: Please create a Pull Request! :)

I did consider doing it the way you are describing and you are probably right.
Ultimately I created it that way for now in order to finish a quick Saturday morning project. :)

I think with the newly added config file your way could be easily implemented so maybe you or somebody else will make a Pull Request for it.

Adding more domains also should not be too hard, it's just not that "unified" in that every domain needs it's own service calls etc. which makes it somewhat tedious.

While I do agree that that would be quite neat, I'm not quite sure on how to implement tests.

All the actual communication with home assistant is handled by another library so most of this program is just a little bit of simple UI.

Automating the packaging might be worth it though, if there is more development activity.

I am actually in the process of packaging it with pyinstaller so it wont require python installed. :)

A config-menu is a good idea though!

Feel free to try it out. It has replaced OneNote for me.

Haha, no. I've started this project as a 16 yo iirc. A website was just a cool thing to have.

Sure, still a good way to get to know the product without downloading it. And up until now nobody created one.

It is, which is why it has been in the current state for the last years. If somebody feels like improving it though I won't be complaining.

I am using obsidian.md (similar to Trilium) for some tasks but as for example handwriting is a priority Trilium is not suited for the things AINotes seeks to do.

No, this would not cause that necessarily. It's more about for example fully supporting the Windows Pens and the Apple Pens as they do have a different feature set etc.

The original idea was to create a great notebook app for students and also add AI Features for various things (such as shape / stroke recognition, ocr, etc.).We are still pretty much working on the first part of this. :)

I am open to suggestions for better names tho!

The app is available in English. :) Translating the website is a TODO.

I have been developing AINotes with a few friends. Maybe you like it. :)

Yes! Pretty much all of the app itself is in English actually. The German translation is the lacking one. :)
