bangle-io VS Docusaurus

Another similar tool that is open sourced and allows you to sync with GitHub [1] .

It differs by providing a WYSIWYG interface while saving content in Markdown.

Hello other text based beings!

I am very passionate about journaling/collecting one’s thoughts. In a typical HN fashion, I decided to make a tool that scratches my itch [1].

Having spent majority of my life with portable computers around, I feel we as humans are losing the joy of writing one’s thoughts out. Sometimes the best thing is to write your thought and establish this one way temporal connection to your future self. This is so beautiful because it crosses the barriers of time, culture and location. An alien human descendant billions of years in future might be able to connect with me by reading my thoughts. Writing is an intellectual marvel that has no other equivalent

What is the pain you are looking to alleviate? YMMV with notion. I think your personal reflections are probably the most important part of this because personal productivity and organization are so personal.

Single app has worked better for me. I am at 4 months of journaling and planning every day (I have used notion for a few years). When I was using desecrate apps I would go 1-3 weeks before system would fall apart.

For me the main pros are: Ability to move and copy elements from tickler to daily plan so easily. Ability to link todo's to documentation. Ability to take notes in a way that works with how I think, and ability to take handle incoming thoughts as fast as they need to be documented.

Main cons are: only "date time" construct in databases, I would prefer a "time" construct. Offline. Data portability.

> I feel like maybe this is the heart of it, having a personal cache to make a temporary mess in until you have time to clean it up later. I could see that being useful - though id want to move everything out of that place and not organize things within it

Cal Newport has a `working_memory.txt` file on every one of his desktops that he chucks random information into and then processes it at the end of the day. Maybe a system like that could be more your jam.

I might one day work up the courage to use [https://bangle.io/](https://bangle.io/) + github. Feels like owning my data + a bit more flexibility could be nice, but that seems like a lot of work.

I would suggest trying out bangle.io [1] - an opens source markdown web app that is completely local and will support GitHub based syncing.

There is also https://bangle.io - an open source web app for taking markdown notes and saving them in your computer.

Note: I’m the author of the project.

I have been using it to provide ability to read existing markdown notes in a users directory see [1]. So far it works great but browser support is limited to chrome and edge.

I have to say, this is a very well designed app.

Since you talk about local only app , I can suggest bangle.io [1] - a local only operative note taking app.

Docusaurus is a popular open-source documentation tool primarily designed for product documentation and other technical documentation needs. It was first released in 2017 by Facebook Open Source (now Meta Open Source). Just recently, Docsaurus version 3.0 was released.

Facebook's React/Markdown SSG docusaurus does those things: https://docusaurus.io/

Though you may have to use a plugin for responsive images: https://docusaurus.io/docs/api/plugins/@docusaurus/plugin-id...

Docusaurus is an open-source static site generator built on React and has emerged as a popular tool for developing and maintaining product documentation. Its ease of use, extensive features, and robust community support make it a compelling choice for many organizations.

Wondering why Docusaurus (https://docusaurus.io) did not match their needs. Works perfectly fine as a blogging engine for our tech blog.

This is developed by Meta. You can create really nice-looking documentation websites super fast.

Docusaurus, a documentation tool by Facebook, hosts a showcase of other websites that use Docusaurus on their Homepage. The list of websites of this showcase is a typescript files that is maintained by Docusaurus devs, and that you can add your website to through PR: https://github.com/facebook/docusaurus/blob/main/website/src/data/users.tsx

Fix "Edit this page" links at the bottom of each doc (Problem with the Docusaurus build I guess)
