vim-markdown VS Joplin

I think vim-markdown does it too

after searching for a while I found there is a plugin vim-markdown but doesn't work

Not Neovim specific but vim-markdown supports some conceal functionality.

I can only speak to markdown for linking, but check out vim-markdown. ge lets you navigate from a markdown link to the file it’s linking to.

vim-markdown also did not work.

Personally, I use vim-markdown for this and other niceties for markdown.

Something like vim-markdown maybe?

I love this because I use markdown heavily in vim. I can't get vim markdown plugin to support auto bullet point insertion and nice `gq` bulleted list paragraph formatting at the same time[1]. However, vim lets you set a program that will do the paragraph formatting for you. I think I could use this to get `gq` to work while still having auto bullet point insertion!

Not sure which exact plugin that is, but seems like it just utilizes conceal, like this one.

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.
