I ended up switching to FOAM (the vscode extension) for personal notes because it's markdown and has much better support for inline planuml and showing node connections as a graph, but I haven't actually bothered changing my work notes away from ZIM because once stuff is in it, it kinda just works. If you don't care about visualizing links between different pages, it does a great job at making hierarchical notes searchable. My biggest gripe was that inserting plantuml code was really clunky because it doesn't update live (you have to submit your changes before seeing the result) but it's still very functional.
- notdiaphone 5y agoI can't speak to plantuml support, but Zim was--guessing here--one of the first to visualize links. Look at the plugin "Link Map." Been using it long before the current crop of markdown knowledge gardens came about.
- maximus-decimus 5y agoI did install it, but it's much more clunky. It doesn't update live, it opens in the browser instead of zim and after a while i figured out it didn't show everything, but stopped a about 5 nodes from the main current one. The graph is also pretty ugly. Maybe they improved it since, but the Zim graphing capabilities just didn't even compare to foam's last time I tried it.
