For the past few years I've been trying to find ideal app for notes. Google keep, Google Doc, Trello, Timers, Workflowy, Github projects, Zettlr, Notion.
The last 2 looked promising, but were lacking in some aspects. TO elaborate, note system should have 3 aspects to be easy to use:
- fast writing
- fast lookup
- has a connection between notes
I found out that Vim perfectly completes all 3:
- efficient writing and navigation
- fuzzy search in file names and content
- supports markdown links and follows them
So I keep my notes directory in Dropbox, processing it with the help of Vim and currently working on lightweight web client to create notes from any device. That can be further processed by main system.
