Products that do what A free and open-source command line note organizer does

Hello, Motivated by this discussion https://goo.gl/te4BFv, I have created a simple (free and open-source) command line note organizer. The tool, called npmnotes, take a folder with notes (written in markdown/texdown) and creates a webpage that lets you search and browse through the notes. You can then publish this webpage or use it locally. The result (built with npmnotes) looks something like this https://npmnotes.org. Currently, this is just a (working) prototype and I plan to add more features soon (based on the feedback I get). What do you think of it?

Textpod is a simple UI on top of a single notes.md file + a few features I always wanted: - add + in front of a link to fetch a local copy of the page (downloaded in the background using monolith[1]) - search is integrated into the note input, just start typing with / - attach images and other files (stored in 'attachments' directory) I made a 1-minute demo video (no sound) [2]. When you start the binary, the data is served from the current directory: the notes file and the attachments directory are created automatically. Run multiple instances from different directories, if needed (I…
