I'm a big fan of Trello for life organisation and one of the best bits is being able to view and add on my phone.

Obviously vim isn't particularly mobile friendly. Any ideas on how to view/edit from afar?

I want to put in a good word for zim-wiki here. Its a shame the Windows port seems to be on indefinite hiatus for now. Its by far the easiest GUI-based wiki to deal with, easily handles just dropping in files into a hierarchy and simply working with them after a refresh. Sorry but being able to use a mouse to navigate a wiki beats out a keyboard-based wiki any time. https://zim-wiki.org/

I just started a project to get 0.70 running for windows on my own machine. If I’m successful, I will share with the community.

I've used Org-Trello [1] in the past to sync an org file with a Trello board. I did this for a few semesters to quickly move all my homework assignments into Trello. Obviously this is an Emacs mode; if you're a Vim veteran, you can always use evil-mode to get the Vim keys in Emacs. YMMV

I have syncthing set up on my laptop and phone. On my Android phone I use Markor for viewing and editing the files, and the changes are then synced back to my laptop.

Admittedly I don't use Markor very frequently, and often just use Evernote instead when I'm on my phone and want to jot down something quickly... This is mostly because I feel the need to organize in folders etc when using Markor and vimwiki, so my mental model of it includes a bit more friction compared to Evernote.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Check out org-roam. It does have the emacs string attached but I've been using doom emacs with it (for vim keybindings) and the learning curve is 100% worth it. 3 weeks in and I haven't looked back here.

Curious if there's a Vim version of org-roam?

There is not.

Used zim as well really liked the simplicity of it, but later on, discovered org-mode and switched to it.
