    This VS code extension is kind of flying under the radar and unnoticed, but it has an amazingly well integrated full WYSIWYG markdown editor: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=cweijan.vscode-office Of all the markdown in VS code things I've tried, this is by far the nicest I've used.

  4. BrainTool is a personal information manager for your online life.
    I was rooting for Topic Maps at the time. The notion of Topics, Associations between them and Occurrences of information about a topic seemed to me to be very powerful. I don't think they were necessarily meant to model mind maps (altho no doubt you could), more of a super charged index of an information space. FWIW Topic Maps were the inspiration for BrainTool [1], which is a 'Topic Manager' maybe in the same space as Dendron. I wrote about the model here [2]. I'm hoping people will exchange Topic Maps that index an information space or area of research! [1] https://braintool.org.

    Joplin is a free, open source note taking and to-do application, which can handle a large number of notes organised into notebooks. The notes are searchable, tagged and modified either from the applications directly or from your own text editor.

    I've started to use Joplin[1] and haven't looked back. It's open source and their business model is hosted cloud syncing. I already have a self-hosted Nextcloud instance running and WebDAV is supported for syncing as well so I'm not paying anything at the moment. They also have apps on desktop and mobile. The apps may not have the most polished UI but they work extremely well. [1] https://joplinapp.org/.
