In plain words

This is a command-line tool for creating and organizing daily notes. It helps users manage their daily note-taking workflow directly from the terminal without needing a graphical interface. The tool is designed for people who prefer working in the command line and want a straightforward way to capture and organize their notes. It launched in 2021 and is available on GitHub.

    A free and open-source command line note organizer2018 · ▲32

    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?
