Research Logbook is a free Windows beta for keeping project notes, pictures, sources and tasks together. Change the sections to suit a dissertation, literature review or course project. Notes stay as readable Markdown and local pictures in a folder you choose, with no separate app account or cloud sync. Three free starter kits include blank layouts and clearly fictional worked examples.

Hi, I’m Dimas, the independent developer of Research Logbook in the Netherlands.
Research Logbook is for students and researchers who want to keep the day-to-day work of a project together: the writing, the picture that explains it, the source behind a claim and the next action.
The notebook has sections you can change to fit your project. You can add captioned pictures and tables, keep detailed reading or meeting notes, and return to unfinished tasks. The files stay in a folder you choose as readable Markdown and local pictures. There is no separate Research Logbook account or built-in cloud sync.
I’ve also prepared three free starter kits for dissertations, literature reviews and course projects. Each contains a blank layout and a separate, clearly fictional worked example. The examples are demonstrations, not real studies or citations.
The app is free and available through Microsoft Store for Windows x64. This is an early beta, so start with a made-up note and keep a separate backup. Mac and phone versions are not available.
If you try it with a project, I’d like to know: what would stop you using it for your next work session? A short description is enough; there’s no need to share your notebook.
I’ll answer questions about the workflow and the local-file approach.
