I like what I see with Obsidian in my test drive but it's a proprietary tool with a license that only protects the company, no terms of service, no privacy policy or even a statement about data usage and collection. I get that the md files are stored locally, but I have no way of knowing what information about my files is collected and stored. I'd like to use it but I'll need a little more on the transparency side of…
The app looks promising! If I understand the license correctly there's no way of trying it out for free in a commercial setting. The only use-case I would have for this is as a work tool, but since the license requires me to pay up front I'm not going to try it. A trial period or similar would be nice.

I discovered andy's notes in the past and has been trying to determined what he uses to publish those clean yet powerfull notes. The janitor is only one part. do you also publish your notes as HTML? How to you make use of the backlinks generated by janitor?
I don't. I share my notes with some friends as a private GitHub repo. The backlinks I just use as click-throughs to help me navigate my own notes. I too admire his notes site. Making my own is too much effort for me right now, but it is something I really want...

I believe you can use this Gatsby theme to get the behavior you're looking for https://github.com/aravindballa/gatsby-theme-andy

It's possible to get a similar system with TiddlyWiki and the Krystal theme plus a few plugins: https://twitter.com/Learn_Awesome/status/1265574525342793730...

I've been looking for something like this for... so long. It's like tiddlywiki but with first class & local markdown! Thank you!!! Add a separate GUI for a workflow-y like list-editing (that saves as a markdown list format) and you've got a serious competitor to Roam as well as beating out more traditional competitors like Notion, Boostnote, etc. e: ah, no inline LaTex.. I knew there was a catch!
> e: ah, no inline LaTex.. I knew there was a catch! Sadly, this makes it completely useless for me.
This looks great! Good timing too, since Roam has recently closed its doors to new signups. I've been looking for a new notetaking / PKM / Markdown app recently, but unfortunately all apps out there fall short in at least one of the following criteria: * bidirectional [[wiki links]] * support for both inline and display math * customizable themes / CSS * rich formatting beyond markdown (e.g. wrap content in tags with…
I back everything up in a private git repo and then use various plugins built on top of mdbook to get all the functionality I want:
* rendering graphviz: https://github.com/dylanowen/mdbook-graphviz
* adding tags to the pages: https://github.com/dylanowen/mdbook-tag
* setting up sections to only render locally and not get published: https://github.com/dylanowen/mdbook-access
The plugin system is super easy to use and you don't need to code everything in rust. You can use any language.
I'm also working on a better renderer instead of just running the mdbook server all the time: https://github.com/dylanowen/mdnotes
I believe with plugins you can meet most of the requirements you have: * bidirectional: definitely could be a plugin
* math support: potentially this feature: https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/blob/master/book-example...
* customizable themes: you can completely overwrite the wrapping html and CSS
* rich formatting beyond markdown: mdbook supports inline html/js as it's based on commonmark
* WYSIWYG: this is the main missing piece, my strategy is to just run my mdnotes application next to my text editor.
This is really the best, just what i wanted, already moved all my notes there, I just miss one thing, working with images and making area screenshots, was easy in evernote, just use the hotkey and select the area and a new note with the image get created, Now, i am using greenshot for trying to replicate this, i set my favorite save folder into Obsidian, Problem is , an image get created, if i want to write some stuf…
How well does it handle large repos?
