    It is something like MDWiki but with the capability to read the index file `_vnote.json` of VNote, which enables us to share one notebook or folder of VNote. Its look is based on B…

    When I started VNote two years ago, I was just a traditional C++ player. So Qt Widgets is the choice. I think it can give me the most freedom and power. When VNote did not support …

    VNote is a Markdown note-taking app. Markdown is excellent to hold script such as PlantUML, mermaid, and so on. So it is possible to support DSL, too.

    This plugin just shows you the graph, right? VNote can scroll the corresponding element into view and highlight it, which is very helpful when the class diagram is really large on …

    Yeah! I used Vim to take md notes before writing VNote. I intended to write VNote to manage and preview the images, formulas, and charts. Indeed, VNote bollows a lot from Vim, like…

    Qt works fine to me. It is easy to develop cross-platform apps via Qt. Utilizing QWebEngine, I am amazed at the hybrid of C++ and Javascript.

    Yes, it is desigbed to handle different formats. But for now, it only handles md files. I plan to enable it to support managing and editing source files, with which we could use VN…

    Hi, for now you could use VNote as an editor to open and edit any md files. VNote treats internal notes and external files differently. Indeed I use VNote to edit the github page a…

    VNote uses plaintext for all data. The design is you could use any editors to edit your notes even after VNote is obsolete.

    VNote does support MathJax. Check the screenshots. I plan to support plantUML, too.

    VNote is great for managing and editing plaintext md files. All data is plaintext and you could even use any editor to edit your notes even after VNote is obsolete someday.

    I think link in edit mode is OK. I used the conceal feature in Vim to hide the URL part of the link when I used Vim to edit Markdown before. But I found that it distracted me when …

    Use this kind of syntax seems do not support up to 6 levels of headings? VNote use `markdown-it` to render the Markdown, so VNote will recognize them in read mode. VNote just choos…

    VNote is inspired by Vim, so there is no reason to not support Vim mode in VNote. However, the Vim mode is implemented by myself one feature by one feature and it does not support …

    Indeed, VNote is inspired by Vim when I used Vim to edit Markdown notes for about a month. VNote utilize many code editors' features for note taking, such as Vim mode, vertical spl…
