# Bouquin
## Introduction
Bouquin is a simple, opinionated notebook application written in Python, PyQt and SQLCipher.
It uses [SQLCipher bindings](https://pypi.org/project/sqlcipher3-wheels) as a drop-in replacement
for SQLite3. This means that the underlying database for the notebook is encrypted at rest.
To increase security, the SQLCipher key is requested when the app is opened, and is not written
to disk.
There is deliberately no network connectivity or syncing intended.
