ctl VS Joplin

Well, I do like mine better, which is closer to the STL, and for all containers. https://github.com/rurban/ctl/

search for htable or hashtable in thousands of open source projects. only a minority has worse hashtables than this one (clisp, perl5 e.g.).

For better ones I would point to my linked list implementation: https://github.com/rurban/ctl/blob/master/ctl/unordered_set.... (because it has various security policies, nobody else has)

C Container Template Library, Rurban Variant (CTL) - The page for unordered_map reads "Implementation in work still".

There is also the rurban variant variant of CTL which is more complete.

The prototype of CC used this mechanism to provide a generic API for types instantiated via templates (so basically like other container libraries, but with an extendible-_Generic-based API laid over the top of the generated types). This approach has some significant advantages over the approach CC now uses, but I got a bit obsessed with eliminating the need to manually instantiate templates.

But the most common that I know of is this one: https://github.com/tylov/STC. There's also this one mentioned above https://rurban.github.io/ctl/

I'm also working on a proper one, but got sidetracked. https://github.com/rurban/ctl/blob/hmap/ctl/swisstable.h

I've had great success with using Joplin for this, with Syncthing as a sync backend. Works well across OSes; I use it on Linux, macOS, Windows and Android.

The tools to manipulate SQL aren't that bad, no.

But rather than having a self explanatory markdown & flat file, now I have to start learning about the schema & making specific tools (in my preferred language) for manipulating Joplin's schema.

Suddenly I'm digging through 20 different technic specs to decode what data is where, how it works, and what I can do to it. Want to edit history? This is the best help you'll get, pray it's adequately technical to expedite you to your purpose: https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/blob/dev/readme/dev/spec...

As I began with, I struggle to imagine anything that generates anywhere near as much user agency as flat files and markdown. Having boring common data & systems lets me apply portable skills I already have, rather than having to skill up in some particular product's own ecosystem.

Joplin is a good open source option too, feels more like the original Evernote in terms of UI/UX https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/

Joplin, an open source, extendable, Markdown-based hierarchical note-taking app: https://joplinapp.org/

It lets you choose a synchronization backend, offers applications for every major desktop and mobile OS (also has a terminal version). You can create notebooks and subnotebooks to organize your notes. You can also add tags for better search experience. I created notebooks for specific domains (work-related, home improvement, etc.) and also keep a "temp" for quick notes and W.I.P. snippets.

Its only con that it uses Electron on desktop which causes relatively slow start of the application.
