noted VS orgajs

This is really cool. I am endlessly fascinated by the proliferation of "productivity apps" when I find the same thing as you: that they are quite unnecessary.

My approach is similar. I already take notes via a Bash script. I configure a particular "label" for any todos and (essentially) just grep for them, excluding those that are crossed out (with Markdown tildes). This approach works great for me as a Staff Engineer in a large tech company. Reference: https://github.com/scottashipp/noted/blob/main/subcommands.m...

I also wanted to mention there are several related ideas / movements around the web. One of the biggest is todotxt. In case you hadn't heard of it: https://github.com/todotxt/todo.txt

I have created my own note-taking tool after experimenting with all of the different note-taking apps for many years.

It's a shell script.

Speaking of which, the documentation has been improved, so take a peak at the README file.

I actually have set up both of the main text editors I use, IntelliJ IDEA and TextMate, with the same template that my Noted cli uses to produce time-stamped note entries.

What is that "n?" As I mentioned, I use a lightweight cli called Noted which is nothing more than a simple shell script. The alias for noted in my shell is n, to cut down on keystrokes.

Depending on how you log data and take notes you might find the orgparse Python library or the orga JS library useful.

That is perfect, all org-syntax features we need are done properly. I can manage to use the orgapp code in some simple tool.

org syntax isn't as confined to the emacs world as it used to be. Check out, e.g., https://github.com/orgapp/orgajs, which parses org files into an 'abstract syntax tree', which can then be transformed/picked for info/indexed, etc. etc. by any number of tools. Pandoc's support is also improving as far as I'm aware.

I am an avid emacs user! Lately, I found a tool named orgajs (https://github.com/orgapp/orgajs/). This seemed great for my needs but it is behind on maintenance.

Thanks @preek. I mentioned you guys in [3] above. BTW I'm actually using this parser: https://github.com/orgapp/orgajs for my product (https://braintool.org), so there are other choices. I guess the key thing is a single well defined grammar.

Is GDrive syncing working in Organice these days? I've wanted to demonstrate interop with BrainTool (which syncs to GDrive files) but last I checked there was some bug.

Overall Orga's great and I really don't mean to diminish the author's work in any way, but I have had a couple issues. A number of them have been fixed, which is great, but I got stuck on this one about line breaks when using auto-fill mode. I think it's fixed in a newer version of Orga, but upgrading broke my build and I've spent enough hours trying to fix it that I'm looking for options.

MDX is non-trivial. But if all you need is gatsby with org, a simpler plugin similar to gatsby-transformer-remark is doable. gatsby-transformer-orga would be a good inspiration here.
