  • Zettlr in the fediverse and on matrix?
    Oh! That's nice. :D Is this mentioned on zettlr.com? Seems as if I've missed it... Source: about 1 year ago
  • Suggestion for open source note taking app
    I'd strongly recommend trying out Zettlr (https://zettlr.com), which in many ways is close to Obsidian (except Zettlr is open source). A new Zettlr release is close to arriving and implements lots of improvements. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Scrivener alternatives for academic writing and research?
    You might give Zettlr a spin. It's another Markdown-based tool like Obsidian, but it is really focussed on Zettelkasten, and of interest to you, with a stronger focus on long-form academic writing. It supports citations, footnotes and uses Pandoc for document production—so there are lots of ways to get your work out. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • Any open source markdown editor having live preview like Typora?
    Is https://zettlr.com an option for you? Source: about 2 years ago

I have moved them to the WYSIWYG-on-Markdown editor Zettlr[1], and my non-technical writers have praised it for being "almost-not-techie at all". I can't stand one more MS magic trick to auto-formatting on copy-paste (while mangling half of the... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
  • I wish there was a clean, easy to use, offline, local storage, open source, or at least one time payment, second brain/ productivity app, like Notion.
    If open source is an essential criteria of yours, I'd recommend Zettlr. Personally I chose Obsidian. Source: over 2 years ago
  • Blogger client for MacOS?
    Free & blogger support: aswinrajeev/blogly , stackedit.io, wordmarkapp.com (maybe it has), zettlr.com, there are probably some others. Source: about 3 years ago
  • Bring Your Own Client
    Disclaimer: Markdown Notes App Author At least for simpler text documents, where formatting isn't a big concern, markdown seems to be wining as the standard. Sure, each of these have built on top of the markdown standard, but even those features are slowly getting quite standardized.
