If you're looking for a mobile client to go along with this checkout GitJournal [0]. It has basic support for wiki style links and backlinks, but I'm still working on the graph support. [0] - https://gitjournal.io

If anyone's looking for a mobile notes app that syncs with git, I highly encourage checking out GitJournal. I used it for a bit before building a personal app specific to my workflow.

Are you still bundling libgit? I remember checking this project out and was impressed you got the setup to work with flutter. It's actually a reason I switched to react native because there were pure JS git implementations [0].

I am a happy Logseq user since summer. I use it as personal and work related knowledge base. It has been developping quickly. I really appreciate publishing features and github sync. I'm self hosting knowledge graphs for my team and despite some early hiccups it's working really well and intuitive. Glad to see it on hn as well.

Logseq is impossible without isomorphic-git, such a great project!

As an org-mode user, I was searching for a way to access my notes outside emacs, in browser and phone. There are a few solutions that can manage org files outside emacs, but none of them goes beyond basic functionalities. I find logseq promising. I think there is already an effort to make it compatible with org-roam. It would be awesome if they support citation packages like org-roam-bibtex and org-ref as well, in future. I would like to hear the author's opinion on this, if they are reading this comment.

Author here, thanks for the posting! I've been working it since February, it started as an org-mode web outliner so that I can use it on my phone to check some todos and capture some ideas. I added some features (backlinks, graph, block embeds, etc.) from Roam Research after trying it. It can be self-hosted and the plan is to have something like TiddlyWiki so that you can use it as a whole HTML file in your own websi…

How does this compare to Obsidian?

Seems like a nice idea but it's very expensive for the feature set, Pro is on the same price level as OmniFocus but can do far less... It also misses outlining support, which logseq has.

(Tried it out on iOS out of interest anyway and it failed to even clone my repo, as it's on a local network, iOS asked for local network access permissions and then it got confused saying "Exception: fatal: remote "origin" already exists")

Logseq supports both block and page embeds, it has datalog queries and task management from org mode. Another difference is that Obsidian is a desktop app and Logseq is a web app which can be used on mobile too.

I find Obsidian's licensing to be overly expensive if you intend to use it for anything that will generate income.
