Does this support maths notation? E.g. Latex code interpreted with Katex or MathJax, or WYSIWYG with MathQuill. I see there may be relevant CKEditor plugins. Could these be used?

#82do you have any plans to create a SaaS version? Maybe with some premium features, that would be great
It's not viable unless you have a lot of paying users and there's a lot of competition.

What features would you like in your ideal one?
Let me join the conversation, since it's a good opportunity to think about it. For me it would be: * Open-source, self-hosted * Storing the data in some very plain format, as long as it doens't conflict with other features. In fact, I'd wish for it to be plain markdown in individual files on the disk, but (aside from performance problems) I don't imagine it being fully possible. So I'm not sure where the right balanc…

Two popular note taking apps which do this are Dropbox Paper and Notion.so, but they only support inline math. A niche app that does both is Gitbook but they’re a newer company and I’m not sure about personal plans. Edit: I should add neither of these support code execution. I would really love if someone could point to a Wikipedia / knowledge base composed of Jupyter notebooks but have the functionality inverted — p…
I'm using it extensively myself :)

One feature I’m sorely missing in pretty much all note taking apps is proper citation/reference handling. As in, working with actual bibliography indexes.

#86This looks awesome! Clearly you have put in a lot of hard work and thought into this. Ive been itching for a scriptable personal knowledge base where I can store arbitrary datastructures and executable code in addition to the typical richtext note taking. Will be diving into the code asap. Cheers!

#87Thank you for the hoisting! For me this is a crucial feature missing on most outliners. I got spoiled by one that had it in the mid 80s (one of the first, can't remember the name). That one went away and ever since hoisting has been my screening test. The fact that hoisting is hard to find 30 years later is evidence of technical regression and the oncoming collapse of civilization. So Trilium gives me hope.
Re: Show HN: Trilium Notes – Scriptable note-taking application
#88Sort of related. Does anyone know of any note apps that will let you select and area of web page, and drag it into the note. I just want easily make a scrap book of relevant info from web pages I visit. The solution I know of, Screen shot, saving, loading, and so on has too many steps. I just want something that will let me select and drag into the note. And that will look exactly like I see on the webpage. Bonus, if…

Which IMHO is the reason why no software for personal managment of stuff will ever be good enough. We all want the perfect tailor-made suit to work with, but we don't wanna go to the tailor and pay for it. And even worst, we grow, we change, so custom-made solution today might not do it tomorrow.
I think for that reason applications with a programatic approach are the real solution for organization like notes or tasks. Something scriptable is a good start for this.
