What is Silverbullet?
Silver Bullet is an extensible, open source, personal knowledge management system. Indeed, that’s fancy talk for “a note-taking app with links.” However, Silver Bullet goes a bit beyond just that.
At its core it’s a clean markdown-based writing/note taking application that stores your pages (notes) as plain markdown files in a folder referred to as a space. Pages can be cross-linked using the [[link to other page]] syntax. This makes it a simple tool for Personal Knowledge Management. However, once you leverage its various extensions (called plugs) it can feel more like a knowledge platform, allowing you to annotate, combine and query your accumulated knowledge in creative ways specific to you.
Comments and Reviews
I've been looking for an open source alternative to Obsidian and Logseq for a long time. It needs more work, but it's getting there.
I'm not a big fan of it being browser based, but at least it's self-hosted. I wish it could be used more as Obsidian is tho. Maybe in the future.
As it is, it works well and the editor is quite usable. It misses features that I'd like, but being as new as it is, I think the current state of the software is good and I'll be sure to check it out in the future for advances.
