  • logseq

    A local-first, non-linear, outliner notebook for organizing and sharing your personal knowledge base. Use it to organize your todo list, to write your journals, or to record your unique life.

    I would recommend https://logseq.com/

    Progress on the `master` branch is a bit slow because there's a transition towards using a database instead of the filesystem https://github.com/logseq/logseq/tree/feat/db

  • quartz

    🌱 a fast, batteries-included static-site generator that transforms Markdown content into fully functional websites

    I haven't tried Zettlr, so I can't compare, and I'm not here to criticize, but what I miss in many tools in this Market is the ability to install and create extensions. That's why I'm a huge fan of Obsidian [0].

    I publish my notes [1] using Obsidian Publish [2], and find the experience really good. I'm able to customize almost every aspect I need to.

    There's also Quartz [3] that is a good compatible alternative to Obsidian Publish.

  • foam

    A personal knowledge management and sharing system for VSCode

    I just use Foam - https://github.com/foambubble/foam

    As a Visual Studio Code extension, it runs everywhere (except some mobile setups), is very fast, and provides me with the ability to tack on more features via other extensions. I set up a “Notes” profile with everything I need, and switch to that for a couple of workspaces.

  • Joplin

    Joplin - the privacy-focused note taking app with sync capabilities for Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS.

    Longtime Joplin [1] user here, how does the most recent version of Zettlr compare? I have grown really comfortable with the simple interface of Joplin, plus using S3 for sync makes life easy for me as I'm living on my own infrastructure.
