Verlauf

Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

nb is a shell-script personal knowledge tool: notes, bookmarks, archives, todos, wiki-style links, search, encryption, Git-backed version history, and sync wrapped in one command-line and local-web interface.

Projektgeschichte

The GitHub repository was created on 2016-01-12. The project presents itself as a portable, vendor-independent Unix tool rather than a hosted notes service: data lives in plain text formats such as Markdown, Org, LaTeX, and AsciiDoc, and the implementation is deliberately packaged as a single portable script with optional enhancements.

Its design grew around composability with existing command-line habits. The README emphasizes use with Vim, Emacs, VS Code, Sublime Text, Helix, micro, terminal browsers, GUI browsers, Git, Pandoc, OpenSSL/GPG encryption, and standard Unix environments including macOS and Windows via WSL, MSYS, and Cygwin.

Adoptionsgeschichte

GitHub API data retrieved on 2026-07-01 showed 8,266 stars and 252 forks. Homebrew Formulae data for the same retrieval showed version 7.25.4 and 2,815 installs over the prior 365 days. The npm package nb.sh was created on 2020-06-17 and the npm downloads API reported 1,450 downloads for 2026-05-30 through 2026-06-28.

The package sits in the command-line PKM and plain-text productivity niche: large enough to be packaged by common package managers and discussed by terminal-tool users, but still most useful to people who already want their notes and bookmarks as files rather than SaaS records.

Wie es verwendet wird

Package nerds use nb as a local-first notebook and bookmark database: add notes from the terminal, save URLs as cleaned Markdown, search cached page text with regular expressions, tag and pin items, and let Git record revisions and synchronize notebooks.

A typical setup is intentionally boring: install nb, keep ~/.nbrc for preferences, point it at an editor, and optionally add Pandoc, ripgrep/ag/grep, browser helpers, GPG/OpenSSL, and remote Git sync as the workflow grows.

Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

nb is interesting because it is not a new storage backend. It packages a familiar Unix stack into a cohesive notes/bookmarks/archive workflow while keeping the escape hatch obvious: the data remains ordinary files under Git.
