xournalpp VS OpenProject

I highly recommend Rnote to anyone on Linux that misses the "hodgepodge" notetaking of apps like OneNote. It works like a dream on touchscreens and drawing tablets, with a surprising amount of configuration under the hood.

Also worth noting is Xournal, an older but similar project: https://xournalpp.github.io/

I've been using Xournalpp[1] for many years, highlighting books as I read them, adding in text/hand drawn annotations in whitespaces if necessary. Unlike other PDF readers/annotators, it saves a separate file, so the original PDF is untouched. It can also export the annotated PDF as a new PDF with highlights and annotations.

Obsidian[2] also has PDF support, where you can open a markdown document side by side with the PDF to take notes as you read. I think it also lets you highlight the PDF itself.

Emacs I think has a similar feature, via plugins/org-mode(?) to the Obsidian setup.

And of course your typical PDF reader probably has support for highlighting PDFs too, but I find them clunky and they save by exporting a PDF, which can be a bit heavy-handed IMO compared to just saving the annotations/highlights as a separate file as Xournalpp does.

Currently, I am trying to build a small open source NLP project for which I first find text on a page and then translate it; see the current project state here: https://github.com/PellelNitram/xournalpp_htr. The purpose of this project is to make handwritten text in Xournal++ searchable for all users.

[Xournal++](https://xournalpp.github.io/) is in my option the best handwritten note-taking software out there, because it has all the coolest features (like LaTeX snippets and shapes) and it's open source too, so make sure to check it out!

I used to manage hundreds of authors for a media site hosted by a tech company, and now I help a project management tool company (OpenProject reach its audience by sharing its remarkable features and stories. So, in this post, I've given an overview of the top 5 open source project management software in 2024.

Not sure why. But feel free to recommend a better tool, since I will need something like this soon.

How about this? https://www.openproject.org/

OpenProject. It has a lot of features and they also give you professional support and features optionally if you need that. It has probably all the stuff that Jira has and has some plugins and integrations.

If you want all the features that Jira has to offer use OpenProject. They also have a compose file and a subreddit on /r/openproject.

As for the planning I'd probably use a project management tool. Usually I'm recommending simpler ones like Vikunja but for whole congresses I'd rather use something 'bigger' like OpenProject (installation doc and they are also on Reddit).
