Scroll — Zen Note-taking App

Try the live app (the Render service may take a minute to wake up).

Scroll is a note-taking app designed to make capturing and returning to ideas feel simple. Its interface is clean and minimal, keeping the focus on the notes themselves.

I built it with Django 6 and a Supabase-hosted PostgreSQL database. Django handles the application logic and server-rendered pages, while django-allauth provides account management and Google sign-in. I used django-widget-tweaks to refine how forms appear in the templates.

Deployment

Scroll runs on Render, with Gunicorn serving the application and WhiteNoise serving its static assets. It connects to PostgreSQL through a DATABASE_URL environment variable and falls back to SQLite for local development when that variable is absent.

Built with

• Django 6
