GitHub Private is Free: Use GitHub as Your Most Powerful Note Taking System
github.comAuthor here, I am happy to see so many awesome ideas from hacker news on note taking: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18837345
Would you let me know whether using Github is a good idea for you to manage your notes? Thanks.
I’ve been using Github for notes recently after trying some other alternatives from your AskHN question, and GH has been good so far, particularly for easily writing notes in markdown, and grouping notes in subfolders within repos.
My main criticism is that it’s not convenient to use Github on mobile and there’s no official app. I just request desktop site in mobile Safari, but the UX is a struggle when creating and editing files.
Feels great to connect with you again!
Github on mobile is a pain for me as well, that's why I need to IM-myself for thoughts on the go and even thinking about writing a lightweight app for myself.
I am using Bear app to do note taking and blogging. Github is awesome for personal project management through.
