evernote2md VS yarle

Evernote was critically valuable for me but has degraded steadily and sadly for years now.

I began my Obsidian migration a few days ago and it's encouraging.

I found the evernote2md project on Github (https://github.com/wormi4ok/evernote2md) the best way to get from ENEX->md files with good resource references. Joplin wasn't getting it done.

If you want to import to obsidian, than all you need to do is export as ENEX and use this Tool to convert to MD. Then just move those new MD. Files into your obsidian vault folder.

I used this tool to convert the enex files to markdown files with preserving all tags: https://github.com/wormi4ok/evernote2md

I did it in 2 steps. Export all your notes from Evernote in a enex file. I used this tool to convert does files to markdown files https://github.com/wormi4ok/evernote2md

You can use the Obsidian app for free, completely offline if you wish, try importing one of your notebooks with a tool like https://github.com/dmuth/evernote-to-obsidian or https://github.com/wormi4ok/evernote2md and see what you think before committing more.

As I understand it, however, evernote has good OCR for pictures of physical highlights and after some quick googling found this tool for converting evernote files to markdown. This means you could theoretically create a similar workflow to the one in the video earlier but using evernote instead of zotero.

Try https://github.com/wormi4ok/evernote2md

One way could be to export Evernote notes to enex files and then convert them to Markdown using this tool.

FWIW, I exported all my Evernote notebooks just recently from my old free account. Used https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle to convert them to Markdown. It also has support for various PKB formats, like Obsidian. Hope that helps!

I then used a 3rd-party tool called YARLE (Yet Another Rope Ladder from Evernote) to convert each .ENEX file into a folder of .md files and a folder of linked attachments.

https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle to convert to Obsidian MD.

Using https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle you will dump all your evernote notes in md format in a directory. You will open the directory as a vault.

Here's how to do it:

1. Download the legacy Evernote v.6.25.3.x. Evernote has removed it from their website but you can get it at FileHippo. Download this now - I downloaded 6.25.3.9348 and used it, but now it's gone from FileHippo... not sure why. https://filehippo.com/download_evernote/6.25.1.9091/

2. Follow the undocumented trick for downloading all notebooks at once. This will preserve tags as well. Archived here: https://archive.ph/XDnqN - scroll down to KoZz's comment posted on "Tuesday at 11:53 AM".

3. Then if you want to move to Obsidian, use YARLE but note the template that automatically loads doesn't work (it has spaces and breaks other rules). https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle

4. Template block definitions here: https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle/blob/master/Templates.m... FWIW, I used this as my template (paste in the "Set Template" window for YARLE):

    {content-block}{content}{end-content-block}

There's a tool called Yarle, aka "Yet another rope ladder from Evernote" that helps you migrate your data to Markdown:

I was never a big Evernote user, but I did use Yarle to migrate some old Evernote data to Obsidian.

That's why I developed Yarle, The ultimate converter for Evernote to Markdown. It is platform-independent, it has UI, no installation requited, supports conversion to standard markdown, or special cases like Obsidian, Logseq or Tana. You could give it a try by downloading it here: https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle

Download and use a tool like Yarle.
