    Offline, lightweight, and best Evernote replacement option.

    ? Building an interface on top of a directory of Markdown files. Huge interoperability gains. ?? ? Amazing plugins (99% free) by a vibrant Forum/Discord community. ?? It's about making sense of information and utilizing it, not just collecting and archiving it. Obsidian and the community excel at that.

    Obsidian is an excellent note-taking app that allows you to write in markdown and use the zettelkasten system.
