• Your Favorite Note Taking App

  Heptabase is terrific. If you are however very very visual: https://milanote.com/. Source: 6 months ago

• Character profile apps

  I like Milanote for a lot of writing tasks and use the paid version. In my novel-length works, each character gets a "board," which can be a character profile, reference art, a mood board, etc. Or ALL of those in one.

My workflow generally goes like:. - Source: Hacker News / 28 days ago

• JSON Canvas: an open file format for infinite canvas data

  The spec basically fits on a page: https://jsoncanvas.org/spec/1.0/ Summary: "node: { type: ..., x/y/color }; edge: { from/to: ..., color/label/... }" Refreshingly simple, especially paired with their "gif of usage": https://obsidian.md/canvas. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• 100% User-Supported

  Even when they step away from Markdown, like for example the canvas feature (https://obsidian.md/canvas), they make sure to build it on top of JSON files instead of inventing a more proprietary format. Does any of the competition use it? Not that I'm aware of. If Obsidian disappeared tomorrow, could anyone reasonably replicate it? Yes. If you don't want to pay for sync, you have other options.
