What is Xournal++?

Xournal++ [xournalpp.github.io] is a free and open source cross-platform desktop note-taking application for Windows, macOS, and Linux that lets you write notes on lined paper using the mouse or a tablet stylus.

Note: the appimage for version 1.2.6 won't work on Linux Mint, see [https://github.com/xournalpp/xournalpp/issues/5862]. You may be able to run it from the terminal using env GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus ./xournalpp-1.2.6-x86_64.AppImage. The same terminal command works if you create a launcher, just change the filepath of the image accordingly.

A window titled "Unsaved Document - Xournal++." Its menubar: File, Edit, View, Navigation, Journal, Tools, Plugin, Help. Two toolbar with several large icons. A side pane with a thumbnail of a page labelled "1". The pane pane shows a line paper with the text "cool websites www.virtualcuriosities.com" badly written by mouse. A status bar has various controls, such as a page number, layer, and a zoom slider.
