Skriuw's Journal is a dedicated space for daily writing - one entry per day, separate from your regular notes, with its own calendar, moods, and tags.

Picking a day, writing an entry, and tagging a mood.

How it works

Pick a day from the calendar and start typing - your words save automatically as you go. Each day gets exactly one entry, so returning to a date always brings you back to what you wrote there. Today's entry opens with a friendly heading ("Today", "Yesterday", "Tomorrow", or the weekday name) instead of a plain date.

Getting around

  • Calendar view - browse by month, jump forward or back, and see a dot on any day that already has an entry
  • Jump to date - pick any date directly from a date picker
  • Today button - always one click back to today's entry
  • Search - find entries by their text or tags
  • All entries - a chronological list of everything you've written
  • Tags view - browse entries grouped by tag

Moods and tags

  • Mark how you're feeling with a quick mood picker (Great, Good, Neutral, Low, Rough) - shown right on the entry and in the calendar
  • Add @tags to categorize entries, then browse or filter by them later
  • Give an entry a custom title, or leave it blank and Skriuw uses the start of your text

Tips

  • Switch between rich text and plain text writing modes
  • See your current and longest writing streaks, mood breakdowns, and a 30-day activity heatmap in the Stats view
  • Export your whole journal as Markdown, JSON, or a printable PDF for backup or sharing
  • Word count and an "auto-saved" indicator sit quietly at the bottom of each entry

Why use the Journal?

Regular notes are for ideas and reference; the Journal is for the daily record - what happened, how you felt, what you're tracking over time. Because it's separate from your notes but built on the same editor, you get a clean, calendar-driven writing habit without cluttering your note tree.
