Zenkat – a CLI tool to manage Markdown notes
I'm a consummate note-taker and have used tools like Evernote, Obsidian, Notion for years. However, I recently begun moving towards a command line workflow using helix etc for my coding, and wanted to port my notes over to this workflow. zenkat is a project that aims to give back some of the 'superpowers' that note-taking apps give you, like tags, knowledge graphs, and so on, while being FOSS (GPLv3). Super happy to hear your feedback as it helps me improve the project, or to take pull requests.
In plain words
Zenkat is a command-line tool for managing Markdown notes with features like tags and knowledge graphs. It is designed for developers who prefer terminal-based workflows and want to move away from graphical note-taking applications. The tool is open-source under GPLv3 license, allowing users to maintain their notes as plain text files while accessing organizational features typically found in dedicated note-taking apps.
