Ask HN: Apps that are built with Git as the back end?
GitJournal comes to mind, "Mobile first Markdown Notes integrated with Git".

ZK access via mobile phone?
If you are working with text files and git, gitjournal works well for me. It defaults to Markdown, but if you just edit in raw mode, you can do anything in the text file.

Blogging from my phone with GitJournal
I've been searching for a while for something that would let me simply publish from my phone. I actually saw GitJournal in the Play store a couple of times, but I assumed it would only use GitHub to back up its own proprietary file format and so be useful.

Best site/programm for creating documents
There are plenty of desktop/mobile apps for working with markdown. (I've been using Notable (desktop) and GitJournal (mobile ) for an Evernote-like experience.) And markdown is often extended with support for internal links like a wiki, attachments, diagramming (see Mermaid), and easy export to other formats like HTML.

GitJournal: Mobile first Markdown notes synchronized with Git
A real human is working full time on GitJournal.
They have built the mobile apps for you as a convenience. But if that's not a good fit for you, The project is open source[1]. Build it yourself.
I love GitJournal, used it to plan and organize two month-long trips in the recent past. It was very nice to edit on my laptop, use my standard git workflow to push and sync, then have it on my phone - and then make quick edits which were easy to get back on my laptop.
Would love if https://github.com/GitJournal/GitJournal/issues/352 were prioritized, though. Making adding new repos easier would be a big deal for my workflow, as I have multiple customers that all need their own repos, sometimes more than one.
Is it possible to build the app as a (Linux) desktop client?
Also, you might want to look at this bug as it might be affecting your cash flow: https://github.com/GitJournal/GitJournal/issues/612

It's 29 Delphi, I mean
> What does ownership mean here?
It means owning the code and the data. With webapps, the code and data are hosted and owned, the users do not own the code, cannot run it independently. This is a clear dileneation between owner and user, and the owners can use that clear line to create artificial scarcity of various kinds. (The most popular being the subscription SaaS model). It's also easier to defend your IP since end users never see your binaries.
I like to make my software single html files whenever possible. People can just save them and run them locally. Havent met anyone who cares yet though.
I like that idea a lot, and I care. I think others care, but yes, it's a niche interest. Take a look at https://tiddlywiki.com/ for an example of a fairly successful project that uses the single html format running locally. However it suffers from limitations on File|Save which often requires a separate runtime of some kind to support.
Another project that approaches this ideal is https://redbean.dev/, @jart's tiny, performant, featureful single-file webserver. In this case the "single file" is a server executable + zip whose state must be updated on the command-line, but I think hits a sweet spot in terms of practicality, and a global minima when it comes to minimizing dependencies. (Redbean bundles SQLite and Lua so it's also possible to do through-the-web state updates as in a traditional webapp.)
My own project, Simpatico, aspires to be something along these lines. Eventually your browser tab is both a client and server process, connecting via websockets to other connected browsers, storing all state locally. I call this pattern "monomorphism", a play on the "isomorphic" javascript SPA. The server[2] is currently written in ~1 node file, but eventually I would like to port to redbean (and greenbean, the websocket version of redbean, but it isn't quite ready yet). The server grew several features to support a fast, practical BTD loop using markdown[1], and safe, performant execution on the public internet[2], but ultimately I'd like to pare it down to serving a single html file and allow the connected clients to provide all diversity of experience. I've used it to explore all kinds of browser apis, from crypto[3] to svg[4] to writing my own libraries (combine[4] and stree[5]). And it's all running locally, and easily hosted on a $5 VPS, and its all open source.

TiddlyPWA: putting TiddlyWiki on modern web app steroids
TiddlyWiki still works as intended: https://tiddlywiki.com/#GettingStarted but there are so many different clients to run on. Mobile or Desktop ? What OS? What Browser?
This effort https://val.packett.cool/blog/tiddlypwa/ is remarkable as the mobile side of saving is not as robust as on the desktop side of things and there is a scaling limit on performance as the number of tiddlers grows. Also the syncing between tw documents between different desktop/mobile clients can be a challenge with diffing.
Since then I've moved back to plain vanilla vim for a wiki (map gf :tabe ) but tw.html is still good for data other than plain text and TiddlyPWA https://tiddly.packett.cool/ is a great effort to revisit TiddlyWiki again.

Wow...this is nice. I use https://tiddlywiki.com/ and it's great, but there's way more functionality in Trilium.

Ask HN: What's a good, privacy focused bookmark manager?
I would also offer to use a single file wiki such as tiddly wiki. It’s more than a bookmark manager, but it can be edited on the web and even stored in a git forge (like GitHub page).

Upcoming Reddit API Changes and the Future of r/leagueoflinux - Looking for Feedback
I think the biggest issue I have with with the alternatives I've looked at so far have been the lack of built-in wiki tools. I currently heavily rely upon the built-in reddit wiki for collecting and documenting everything here, which further complicates the situation. To be fully transparent, my plan was already for the next major iteration of the wiki to be off-site, something akin to a TiddlyWiki or DokuWiki; I've had this in mind for a long time now, including while rewriting the current iteration of the wiki. However, I am nowhere near beginning that project, and certainly wouldn't have anything cobbled together before July 1st. Effectively, wiki tooling is a must-have.

Notebook in html format
TiddlyWiki is along that same idea but with a wiki setup. You just download a template html and then its yours to do with as you wish. I used it for note taking in school, worked reasonably well.
