What is Lepton?

Lepton is an open-source project hosted on GitHub, offered at no cost and without a mechanism for financial contributions, encouraging users to support the Wikimedia Foundation instead, which fosters the dissemination of knowledge through Wikipedia and its related initiatives worldwide. The application leverages GitHub APIs to determine the programming language in use and incorporates a centralized configuration file that must be manually set up at the start, rather than being auto-generated. Operating solely as a desktop client for GitHub Gist, Lepton does not provide an independent service, with all data either saved locally or on the GitHub Gist platform. To get started, users must create a GitHub token that has Gist permissions and enter this along with other settings into the application's configuration file under the enterprise section. In addition to this, Lepton boasts a well-organized description area that facilitates both title entries and tagging, enabling users to effectively categorize their gists by language and custom tags. The application also supports Markdown rendering, which enhances the overall user experience, and further serves as a versatile markdown note-taking tool, allowing accessibility from various locations. This multifunctionality renders Lepton an invaluable asset for both developers and individuals who take notes, fostering productivity in diverse scenarios and use cases.
