Desktop: Desktop app cannot be used offline
Currently, the main window just stays blank if there is no internet connection.
The reason seems to be that the main index.html points to remote JavaScript and CSS code.
This implementation is also mentioned as problematic in that issue.
Awesome work BTW! Love the philosophy behind it. A minimalist encrypted cross-platform notes app like this one is long needed.

Thanks, glad you like it :) Getting the remote JS issue fixed is #1 priority right now. Will update this issue as soon as it's fixed.

Note: You mentioned on hackernews that the desktop app is supposed to work offline. Did not work for me on Macos Sierra 10.12.2 at least, just FYI.

Right, I was assuming the app was already open or cached, in which case it would work online. Totally failed to consider the remote JS issue. But after that, it should work offline as intended.

Is there any expected ETA for the fix of this issue?

I would say about 1-2 weeks. I have to set up an Electron auto-update server before I can remove the remote JS.
