Is there an app this where the editor is WYSIWYG but the storage format is Markdown? Almost like Confluence from a UI perspective but for a personal KB?

- bachmeier 5y agoObsidian has a "Live Preview" mode.
- qbasic_forever 5y agoThe latest Obsidian release has a WYSIWYG editor mode that's quite good in my experience. It stores everything in plain old markdown files and has a ton of plugins for extra stuff like backlinks, etc.
- rcarmo 5y agoIt works really poorly on mobile for me. Completely a no-go.
- sporedro 5y agoTake a look at Joplin, it had a WYIWYG editor and normal editor. It’s like an open source Evernote.
- earleybird 5y ago1+ for Joplin - been running it a couple of years now syncing to self hosted Nextcloud.
- chrisweekly 5y agoObsidian (it's fantastic).
- IAmEveryone 5y agoI've configured VSCode for this purpose. You can set a proportional font, at which point you are already halfway there. The default syntax highlighting already assigns scopes for headlines, bold/underline/italics, lists, code blocks and links, and it is either easy or default to style the text accordingly.
- scriptautomate 5y agoNice. Do you have any links to configs or guides on setting up these modifications?
- kevinslin 5y agoDendron has plans to add WYSWG functionality this year
- Barrin92 5y agothere's also https://logseq.com/ https://logseq.com/
- nopenopenopeno 5y agoThe new Obsidian version does this extremely well.
- kushan2020 5y agoYou can try out https://bangle.io https://bangle.io, it is a real WYSIWYG Markdown * based note taking app that is local and open source. * By real I mean that the UI stays WYSIWYG, unlike other apps that fall back to Markdown notation while editing.
