Nuts. I updated my mac to #GoldenGate and forgot that it drops intel support.
That's going to make creating universal builds of #TangentNotes rather difficult…
-
And I didn't even bring up [[Wiki Links]], and Map View (which looks like a mind map).
These are two other useful features available in Tangent Notes.
And everything is in markdown!

Below is a screenshot of Tangent Notes. It reads and saves documents into markdown. Happens to read Obsidian folders natively, which is a great way to work.
I've found it particularly useful for writing, editing, and organizing my research documents & notes. Tagging makes this even more powerful.
I REALLY like where this open source project is heading, so I want to bring a bit of visibility to it. Try it out! 🙂

New post: The Markdown Link No. 1
Among today’s links, there is a text editor designed to work with markdown, JSON, YAML and TOML, a new iPad app with a mathematical leaning and markdown editor @tangentnotes latest update, a major one.

Link preview in #TangentNotes is a pretty nice addition. Works for raw URLs and embed-style links like
.Very friendly!

Has anyone ever used or does anyone now use Tangent? Thoughts?
-
@taylorhadden @tangentnotes Not to sound cheeky, but... a legend? Or a better explanation with an example screenshot in the documentation of Tangent notes?
The alternative could be a different hue of green. Then one might easier associate past trails with well, the past.
I am *really* enjoying #TangentNotes for writing my development diaries right now!
-
Thought I'd try the math thing in #TangentNotes and it works really well. You got your editing view with (light) syntax highlighting, and the formula is rendered while editing.
@taylorhadden does nice work!
-
Right, so.. #TangentNotes is basically #Obsidian except without the plugins and mighty community support? Got it.
-
Exploring the viability of using #TangentNotes as the spot to write and manage site content. It's viable — it's also a given that I'll massage note files with a script before feeding them to Hugo or other SSG.
Incidentally the "Map View" for tonight's editing session is kind of comical.
-
#TangentNotes doesn't do special rendering for tables or definition lists, but as long as it doesn't argue with me about what I type? I can set font to something monospace and not care.
-
I was a little worried that dumping 800 markdown files in would do bad things to the #TangentNotes timeline view, but it's good about only showing the files I actually looked at.

@Forrest Two reflections from my own trials:
Honestly, I miss taps or split screens more than the right sidebar. The sidebar easily feels like something that can get me stuck in not being able to "tangentize".
Maybe you‘d need a right sidebar that also supports "tangential tabs" also #TangentNotes?
Other thought - I‘ve found what‘s most "cool" about Heptabase is the ability to make and "tear apart" cards on the whiteboard as information comes in from research and documents.
