   Go-to solution for easy paper replacement

   Used my laptop, a small wacom tablet, and this program to replace all my engineering notes this semester. No more scanning to upload, re-drawing plots, re-writing equations, printing assignments, or heavy binder to carry around.

   🏁 Competitors: OneNote

   👍 Pros:    Export in pdf|Import pdf

• 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. Your mileage will depend on your tolerance of the price point and how many characters you have. Source: 12 months ago

• Me as a new DM:

  And here's a tool to help: https://milanote.com/ I've fallen in love with this thing because it let's you construct a visual board with it all your nodes a separate bubbles connected with lines, basically a digital cork board for pining then and stifling things around as the players proceed to waltz through your world.

• Hi, I’ve just launched a new design app that I'd really appreciate feedback on. It's a digital canvas to ideate & moodboard. Think Illustrator & Canva but for textile design. As a thanks, you'll get a free account and we'll feature your work on our website & social media. URL in comments 🙂

• Anything you wish there was an open source solution for?

  Milanote. Something that just lets you have boards within boards, in a free-form note space. Not Joplin or Obsidian. Even though those two are spectacular, they don't have the board format I like for some projects. A self hosted alternative would be amazing! Source: about 1 year ago

• Book list for streetfighting computer scientists

  I've been using Xournalpp[1] for many years, highlighting books as I read them, adding in text/hand drawn annotations in whitespaces if necessary. Unlike other PDF readers/annotators, it saves a separate file, so the original PDF is untouched. It can also export the annotated PDF as a new PDF with highlights and annotations. Obsidian[2] also has PDF support, where you can open a markdown document side by side with... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Combined metric for finding and decoding (digitally) handwritten text on a page?

  Currently, I am trying to build a small open source NLP project for which I first find text on a page and then translate it; see the current project state here: https://github.com/PellelNitram/xournalpp_htr. The purpose of this project is to make handwritten text in Xournal++ searchable for all users. Source: 8 months ago

• Alternative to MS OneNote that’s truly as good? Flair is limited but more precisely is I’d like cross-platform.

  On Linux, Xournal++ is the best thing that can do inking. https://github.com/xournalpp/xournalpp. Source: about 1 year ago

• Need help installing Latex on Linux

  First of all, I don't want to install Latex, but since my note taking app requires it, I feel like I don't have any alternative. I was wondering if I needed to download TexLive or if there were any other options for me. I am taking physics notes and I don't want anything other than basic text editing (superscript, subscript, symbols for physics equations and basic math stuff), is there a way I don't have to...

• Need an app like xournalpp which can take help me edit and insert Latex into Pdfs

  I recently was looking for a note making app for editing, marking, drawing over a pdf file and a helpful person suggested me xournalpp, though this is very helpful, I have to install 7GB s of Latex app to even start inserting Latex text on my pdf, is there an app which doesn't need me to install Latex app(7GB) and can still let me put in Latex text on my pdf like Obsidian does?
