tl;dr: A flask and mongoengine backed web-app for note-taking, whether it is TODO list, article or simple reminder.

Pre-requisite: have mongodb installed -- in ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install mongodb

Setting-up the virtualenv (creates a virtualenv called '.venv' -- the resulting .venv folder will be hidden in linux --, ignored by git (cf .gitignore))

pyvenv ./.venv

Activate your newly created virtualenv:

source ./.venv/bin/activate

To deactivate the virtual environment, simply:

deactivate

Again, we are createing a virualenv called venv.

conda create --name venv

To activate your new environment:

source activate venv

To desactivate it:

source deactivate

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Initialise the db:

python manage.py init

Run the test server:

python manage.py runserver

All posts (default article, todo list, etc) can be public or private. Private items (and public ones) can be accessed through /post/list whereas public ones are listed at /blog.
