Step-by-step – Joplin Gentoo Installation

GNU/Linux Gentoo Installing Joplin – QuickStart Guide

Hi! The Tutorial shows you Step-by-Step How to Download and Install Joplin in Gentoo GNU/Linux Desktop.

And Joplin for Gentoo is a Free, Open Source Note taking and To-do App, which can handle a large number of Notes organised into Notebooks.

The Notes are searchable, can be copied, tagged and modified either from the Application directly or from your own Text Editor.

Again one of the goals of Joplin is to avoid being tied to any particular company or service, whether it is Evernote, Google or Microsoft.
