LLM-coded Notebook Program - Washikami
Rationale Recently, I had Claude create a webapp in about 20 minutes that did almost everything I wanted from the app. Within a weekend, it had everything I wanted. Samsung Notes is pretty good, especially the writing feel. They've also added tape recently, which is very nice. However, it is still quite basic and the Windows program isn't great, particularly the 'warnings' if you aren't using a Samsung laptop. I've found StarNote to be a great notetaking app. However, then pen responsiveness is slightly 'off'. It has plenty of features, but some small things that don't quite do what I'd like, and the developers also don't seem interested in adding more customisation. The developer are also Boox, so security is also a minor concern. Therefore, as I had some spare time and some Claude usage to spare (I used over 90% of my weekly usage on this, lol), I thought I'd get an LLM to create a notebook program.

The programs/apps
The GUI is based on Microsoft Zune, as inspired by Seven Pens' OpenTabletArtist and fond memories of the Zune Windows Player.
The apps aren't complete. There's still image insertion, text, stickers, and more customisation to do. It also needs a logo. But I've used almost all my usage for the week already and currently this isn't worth spending money on.

Ethics and transparency
Both the Windows and Android apps are completely coded by Claude Code. I have only provided prompts for feature requests and feedback on tests Claude Code could not run itself. As I have had almost zero input into the creation of these programs/apps, I have no intention to monitise them. If they work well, I may publish them on GitHub and F-Droid completely free of charge. I have no intention to raise money for them e.g. through donations or services like BuyMeACoffee. Disclaimer: The code has not been checked for security and stability by a human. Run these at your own risk. ---
