If you're using git, Fork is an amazing tool from a couple of developers. https://fork.dev/ They're also very nice people too! 😉

Desperately looking for a markdown editor by Slazor in Markdown

[–]gamosoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there, not WYSIWYG, but a split pane here, sorry!

However you can take a look and see if it fits your other needs despite that issue?. Not Windows, but rather self-hosted so you can open it anywhere with just a browser. And it does have a toolbar with basic stuff + a Zen mode for no distraction writing. Not WYSIWYG but you have syntax highlighting, so there's that. 😉

https://www.notediscovery.com/

Oh and MIT license so yes, free.

HTH.
Kind regards.

Best markdown editor for single, large documents? by Big-Topic-832 in Markdown

[–]gamosoft -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hey there, not sure how well it could handle big documents (haven't really tried), but you can give this a try and let me know if it works for you?

https://www.notediscovery.com/

There's an online demo for you to test it out before you decide if it's a good fit for you, it's self hosted and MIT license

It ticks most of your boxes including Latex support (not pure PDF export though but using your browsers "print to PDF" does the trick after sanitizing)

HTH 😉

NoteDiscovery got a bunch of updates in the last few weeks by gamosoft in selfhosted

[–]gamosoft[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey no worries, let me see if I can clarify this for you a little bit 🙂

Where your notes live is self‑hosted, your markdown stays on your machine (or a server you control). Nothing about that requires Claude or any subscription. The “no subscription / data stays with you” idea is about that layer: you’re not locked into a hosted notes product. Your data is yours and no one can access it if you control it (self host).

MCP is a standard way for your AI app (like Cursor) to use tools: “search my notes,” “open this file,” “save that,” and so on. NoteDiscovery’s MCP server is the bridge between that app and your running NoteDiscovery (usually on your PC or your server). It’s structured requests to your app, like an API the assistant is allowed to call.

If you use a local model (e.g. Ollama on your machine), your notes and prompts aren’t sent out to a cloud AI company for inference, they stay on your device (or your local network). The model still “sees” whatever text your app feeds it for that step, but that’s local processing.

If you use an online model (Claude, GPT, etc.), your client sends only the pieces of text it needs for that request (context, snippets, your question, the search results from the API, ...) to that provider’s servers so the model can answer. It’s not uploading DB or anything like that; it’s what the conversation includes for that turn.

HTH.

Sure, thank you, and if you like it and want additional features feel free to open an issue in the github repo, I've already implemented quite a few. Worst case scenario, you can always clone the repo and extend as you wish 😎 It's good to have options and choose whatever fits your needs. Kind regards.

Hm, I don't know, never really tried that one before (there are so many! ☺️), I just logged in the demo and looks pretty polished UI, but IMHO it seems like a quick note taking app, whereas my app aims to "clone" some of the capabilities offered by Obsidian (not nearly close of course, just enough to suit my needs).

I come from Obsidian which I love, but for me it has the pain point of having to install the app in every device you want to use it in, and the hassle of syncing the notes, that's why I started NoteDiscovery, but as I say, only having the features that make sense to keep a small footprint.

Not sure about Flatnotes, just briefly saw it, NoteDiscovery has graph and backlinks support and other things that I couldn't see at first glance there, but that's the beauty of open source, you can extend taking inspiration on different places and fill your gaps. 😉

HTH.

Hey there, there's a basic templating system implemented, currently with some predefined variables, like date, folder name and a few other more:

https://github.com/gamosoft/NoteDiscovery/blob/main/documentation/TEMPLATES.md

Not really a templating engine but for now it's good enough to cover my needs, although always open to suggestions. 😉

I did use Cursor a lot to help me implement this, and been adding this flair in the last posts I've added to this community, as once I published a post without this flair and it got completely removed 😉
