Comment on Show HN: I wrote a local-first notes app for Mac, with data longevity in mindparent

Comments

Not the commenter, but I’ve been in a similar struggle to find “thw perfect note app” since evernote went South. I’ve been trying Obsidian, Joplin, Bear, and Craft.

A must have for me is a code-block (three backticks enter or similar).

A killer feature would be a rest api so I could integrate with cli tools (bash, jq, grep, etc) without having to parse html.

I’m excited to try this out.

You say you've been struggling even though you've tried Obsidian. It has support for code blocks. I don't know about a rest API, but if you want to use CLI tools, the files are already stored in markdown format on your hard drive. I use CLI tools on my Obsidian files all the time.
