SeqLog is a native macOS outliner for people who want their notes to stay ordinary files.
Every note is a plain Markdown file in a folder you choose. There is no database and no proprietary format, so ripgrep, git, or any other tool on the machine reads exactly the same bytes. Full text search runs over the folder itself, so there is no index to rebuild or corrupt.
A daily journal and named pages sit side by side. Wikilinks connect them and every page lists the blocks that link to it. A command palette searches page names and file contents together.
Git is embedded rather than shelled out. Edits are committed in the background, the history panel expands each commit into an inline diff, and any single file can be reverted on its own.
It opens an existing Logseq vault in place, because it uses the same journals/ and pages/ folder layout. Nothing to import, nothing to convert.
Written in Swift on AppKit rather than Electron. Free for macOS.

This looks very similar to a FoSS version of Tana: https://tana.inc/ Which is well timed because I've been increasingly leaning more into Tana but also being like "it would really suck if this tool goes away". Having something that has the same ergonomics of Tana but is more open is really interesting. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
Looks great! Would be interested to hear how people are getting on with Tana (https://tana.inc/), the tool from which this idea was borrowed. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
On the https://tana.inc/ page in the use case videos the app looks slightly different. Source: almost 3 years ago
I have been using tana for knowledge management and as a Kanban board for tracking work. From past experience, I've learned that I am motivated by productivity metrics. Therefore, I implemented two tana commands in order to track the work that I complete and receive notifications on my productivity stats. - Source: dev.to / about 3 years ago
Be sure to check out Tana (https://tana.inc/). The new kid on the block and best described as if Notion and Roam had a baby. They have a (beta) quick capture app, the Android version of which currently needs to be downloaded as an APK. Source: about 3 years ago
