  • neuron

    Future-proof note-taking and publishing based on Zettelkasten (superseded by Emanote: https://github.com/srid/emanote)

    The .md publishing step you’re asking about is very neatly handled by Neuron (https://neuron.zettel.page/). The community is helpful and the original author of the project is a great guy and accessible on matrix.

    you’ll be up and publishing in no time (for free and automatically to GH pages if you want)

  • modfoss_devel

    Setup a development environment

    I've used personal wikis and knowledge bases for myself and they work okay. vimwiki has been useful for me.

    I find that I do some pretty cool stuff and then totally forget how I did it a year or 5 years later, mostly with coding. The open source projects I documented and explained are things I myself google to help me set them up in the future, so a way of codifying my knowledge has been to try to write about it and put that in public.

    I set up development environments for myself a lot, so I wrote an article about how I do it https://modfoss.com/creating-my-development-environment.html and then put the code on GitHub as well https://github.com/symkat/modfoss_devel So if I don't do it for a while, I'll have a starting point and me-from-the-past explaining what I did and why.

  • org-roam

    Rudimentary Roam replica with Org-mode

    After what I suppose has been 15 years of searching, I have settled on the Zettelkasten method using Doom Emacs (Vim-like keybindings) with org-mode and org-roam (https://www.orgroam.com). I struggle to think of anything that could beat it.

  • zim-desktop-wiki

    Main repository of the zim desktop wiki project

  • til

    Here’s the link: https://til-mraza007.vercel.app/

    Here’s the source: https://github.com/mraza007/til
