dendron

Anyone tried Dendron (https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron)? It feels like it could almost become a competitor to Obsidian and plus is essentially a vscode plugin, so you get the benefit of using vscode as your code editor as well. Too bad the project has ended as there is no clear approach for the Dendron team to make it financially sustainable (with their cloud sync subscription, much like Obsidian Sync). But it's basically opensource now so hopefully can be forked and the lessons learnt from Obsidian be applied to it (e.g. Any folder of textfile should be openable under Dendron. Unfortunate at the moment you have to initialize a separate repo and then port it over)

Dendron development stopped about a year ago: https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/discussions/3890#discus...

Dendron shut down a long time ago: https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/discussions/3890 The repo is up, but the project is dead.

In case if you want some Evernote alternatives, here's my shortlist: 1. Trilium Notes: https://github.com/zadam/trilium 2. AppFlowy: https://github.com/AppFlowy-IO/AppFlowy 3. Affine: https://github.com/toeverything/AFFiNE 4. Joplin: https://github.com/laurent22/joplin 5. Dendron: https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron (requires VSCode) As a programmer I liked Dendron the most but if you want it to be packed with absolute features, try Trilium Notes (but some considered it to be feature creep and bloated)

The thing I keep sitting with is what one wants for personal knowledge management vs. collective knowledge management. I've been using athens research ( https://www.athensresearch.org/ ) so far after doing classnotes in roam thinking one there could be extensions in the future to make things 'feel' like navigating directories of markdown files if really needed. After reading more about dendron which states on https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron "It's a personal knowledge management solution (PKM) built specifically for developers and integrates natively with IDEs like VS Code and VSCodium." , the question is how these tools could serve a wider audience if they were packaged more as standalone app (using something like Eclipse Theia).

Having a generally positive experience with Dendron: (https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron ) currently, having recently migrated several thousand markdown-format notes captured over the past few years.
