I really need to take another look at both #ZimWiki and #CherryTree. They're both desktop #NoteTaking apps, developed long before #PKM was even a thing!

@var I'm using #Obsidian as my main app for this, along with #Logseq. https://obsidian.md/

I did play with #ZimWiki a while back, though, along with #CherryTree... Must have another look at them both, especially now I'm more in the #PKM space than I was then.

I am currently working on a few templates I plan on using for #zimwiki

If anyone else uses this software, might I request any tips you might have?

Thank you!

I have no idea how to express the frustration of having an idea in my head and finally finding the concept not only existed, but was only blocked from me because it was in another language. (German in this case, I guess.)

#emacs soll cooles Tool für alles zu sein. Schweirzer Taschenmesser. Versuche seit paar Monaten zu erlernen um eine eigene Wissensdatenbank nach #zettelkasten Prinzip zu erstellen. Also eigene Wiki.
Es ist schon schwer ohne Englischkenntnisse, da fast alle Tutorials, Videos und Blogs auf englisch sind.
Zwischen durch, immer wieder, breche ich ab und versuche etwas anderes dafür zu finden. Für #zimwiki z.B. habe gar keinen guten Tutorial gefunden.
Will aber trotzdem durchziehen.

Tried different stuff fot knowledge base management.

1. #trilium

https://github.com/zadam/trilium

❌ #electron
❌ Keeps notes in #SQLite database.
❌ Immediately asks for internet access on #Windows workstation.

2. #logseq

https://github.com/logseq/logseq

❌ #electron
✔️ Keeps notes in separate files.
❌ Each line is a list element.
❌ telemetry

3. #cherrytree

https://github.com/giuspen/cherrytree

✔️ #cpp + #gtk
❌ Keeps notes in SQLite database or a single #XML file.
✔️ Looks nice.

4. #zimwiki

https://github.com/zim-desktop-wiki/zim-desktop-wiki

✔️ #python + gtk
✔️ Keeps notes in separate files.
✔️ Lots of settings and plugins.
❌ Lots of settings and plugins.

5. #vimwiki

https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki

✔️ #vim
✔️ Keeps notes in separate files.

The list is ordered from "the least liked" to "the most liked".

I worked with each instrument from 30 to 60 minutes.

@achim Ich bin immernoch sehr minimalistisch mit #zimwiki unterwegs.

Nutzt hier jemand das #LilyPond Plugin für #zim?

Die Doku sagt, es würde ein zusätzliches Template "_Score.ly" für die Erstellung einer Seite verfügbar sein. Ist es aber nicht und das Netz schmeißt dazu keine Lösungen raus. Was sehe ich nicht?

#ZimWiki

Markor (https://gsantner.net/project/markor.html) is a simple text editor for Android. It supports #markdown, #todotxt, and #zimwiki syntax highlighting and can convert markdown and zimwiki to HTML or PDF (how cool is that).

The UI is very customizable and includes several popular syntax themes (gruvbox, solarized, and nord to name a few)

Markor works completely offline so you are free to use whatever sync system you want (I use #syncthing). Best of all #markor is completely free and does not have any ads!

@tapaniraja I don't keep a personal journal but I keep one for work to track what I did and what my daily goals are/were. For that I'm using the #zimwiki (https://zim-wiki.org/).
Before that I used marktext which is also nice, but I wanted something less heavy (no electron) and with the ability to link between notes.
