  • obsidian-releases

    Community plugins list, theme list, and releases of Obsidian.

  • Lot's of people have mentioned Obsidian, which made me think of Obsidian Portal (completely different company). It's both wysiwyg and/or markdown language wiki worldbuilding tool, that segregates player data and GM data, so the players can add stuff without seeing or altering what the GM has put in. This takes quite a load off the GM, to the point I've started awarding reroll tokens to players that update articles and session notes (and anyone who does session notes 5 times gets a "nat 20" token on the 5th time instead of just a reroll.)

  • GNU Emacs

    Mirror of GNU Emacs

  • If you are of the Emacs inclination, org-roam (implying org-mode) writes and organizes notes; magit (implying Git) can store them.

  • github-orgmode-tests

    This is a test project where you can explore how github interprets Org-mode files

  • If you are of the Emacs inclination, org-roam (implying org-mode) writes and organizes notes; magit (implying Git) can store them.

  • magit

    It's Magit! A Git Porcelain inside Emacs.

  • If you are of the Emacs inclination, org-roam (implying org-mode) writes and organizes notes; magit (implying Git) can store them.

  • git

    A fork of Git containing Windows-specific patches. (by git-for-windows)

  • If you are of the Emacs inclination, org-roam (implying org-mode) writes and organizes notes; magit (implying Git) can store them.

  • zim-desktop-wiki

    Main repository of the zim desktop wiki project

  • I use Zim, a native wiki with interlinkable pages, tagging and hierarchies. The source of a project is just a bunch of plaintext markdown files in folders which is easily cloud-backupable (there is no mobile frontend I'm afraid). I went back to it after using OneNote despite being lighter on features, but I guess I like the simplicity of Zim. Most of my content is worldbuilding though.

  • notion-auto-pull

    Bash script to automatically download a notion workspace

  • I use notion.so for the notes that are meant for my eyes. Session notes, ongoing plots, random NPCs, things I plan to give to the players, loose threads I gotta tie up later.

  • kanka

    Worldbuilding and RPG campaign management tool

  • And if it's a longer going game, I use kanka.io for things the players get to see too. Their characters are there, as are any NPCs and locations that they know (and any they do not are hidden), and an interactive map, and any shared session notes.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
