The Markdown Handbook

The Markdown Handbook is your reference to everything markdown.

I used to use #nvALT for digitally taking notes on tools and methods, sometimes meetings. It's fast and keyboard friendly, but my notes' Markdown needs some processing before I can publish them online. I tried #Zettlr, which provides some additional features like backlinks.
But it looks like #Obsidian provides even more features that I like. So I think it's time to import my notes.
(I'm not looking for tips per se)
@MacLemon I'm curious how #NVAlt works with so many notes, and how you separate different types of information? I have really resonated with #Obsidian because different types of notes can be in separate vaults so they don't mix. My work notes are separate from my blog posts or my life management-type docs. How do you keep those separate in NVAlt or #NVUltra? Even having spaces based off different directories would help keep things orderly. @ttscoff
The advantage of this combination over using notes in iOS is the ability to access the very same TXT files in a single folder. #nvalt #simplenote

@ellane been a plaintext guy for at least a decade (though not with a foresight). Started with #nvalt then to other tools.

Donโ€™t know if youโ€™ve read this: https://sive.rs/plaintext. That validated my practice.

@ctietze @flyingmeat Using such a cute puppy for your evil commercial purposes is justโ€ฆ itโ€™s a very nice puppy. Thumbnail: succeeded.

PS Looking at some of your old posts, is #TheArchive based on old code from #nvalt, or is it more a spiritual successor?

Note taking is โˆž. Personally I'm the Student/Librarian archetype of a note taker.

I've amassed โ‰ˆ10k text only notes. On macOS I'm using #nvAlt https://brettterpstra.com/projects/nvalt/ which improved upon #NotationalVelocity https://notational.net all syncing via #Simplenote on iOS.

I'm hoping for #nvUltra https://nvultra.com/ by @ttscoff to become publicly available at some point. The betas I was lucky enough to try are phenomenal.

So far, nothing else comes close, for me.

A new app is coming to replace nvALT: nvUltra. Sign up here for updates here.

@marcjenkins The speed of #NotationalVelocity and #NVAlt! It was breathtaking at the time. Nice, simple, minimal interface, to boot.

@ivan3bx @AriT93 @davew that's cool Ivan, thanks for following! Are you familiar with #NVAlt and now #NVUltra? It's not quite the way I like to work but my understanding is that it's been in continuous development all this time?

I'm a fan of the dev @ttscoff , especially his #Mac Service Tools for working with #markdown. ๐Ÿ”Œ
