Quentier is a cross-platform note taking app capable of working as Evernote client. It can also be used for local note taking as well, without the necessity to even have the Evernote account. Quentier supports the following features: * Synchronization of user data (notebooks, notes, tags, saved searches) with Evernote servers * Evernote search syntax can be used for data searching within the local database * Printing of notes and converting them to pdf files * Ability to open several notes simultaneously in either tabbed or windowed interface * Ability to switch between accounts - both local and Evernote ones

Quentier is available as an AppImage which means "one app = one file", which you can download and run on your Linux system while you don't need a package manager and nothing gets changed in your system. Awesome!
AppImages are single-file applications that run on most Linux distributions. Download an application, make it executable, and run! No need to install. No system libraries or system preferences are altered. Most AppImages run on recent versions of Arch Linux, CentOS, Debian, Fedora, openSUSE, Red Hat, Ubuntu, and other common desktop distributions.
Unlike other applications, AppImages do not need to be installed before they can be used. However, they need to be marked as executable before they can be run. This is a Linux security feature.
Behold! AppImages are usually not verified by others. Follow these instructions only if you trust the developer of the software. Use at your own risk!
Download the Quentier AppImage and make it executable using your file manager or by entering the following commands in a terminal:
Then double-click the AppImage in the file manager to open it.
chmod +x ./*.AppImage
