Yes, I agree on that. I supposed it's more difficult to do than it seems
It's not electron, it's a WebEngineView, see the VideoViewerUi_alt.qml file for example.
But you're right about dolphin. It does support preview and they're enough for me. However, I saw people for whom this was not enough, and IIRC that's the reason behind the creation of this project.
There's https://invent.kde.org/danagost/Kiview
Don't know how well it works but you could give it a try
So cool to see this one coming back from the dead ! Well done ;-)
Based on you use of Obsidian this might change
If you don't use some crazy Obsidian plugin the biggest change is the folder structure, which wil change to be less strict in the future
It's normal! I want people to try it out and give me some feedback ;)
Yes that's pretty much the plan ;-)
And math support is wanted, I just need to check what would be best to do it
Not from KDE
I tried it before creating Klevernotes, and it was just to much for me. I would like to make an alternative that look and feel simpler, while keeping the power.
But if QOwnNote is good for you, that's cool
"WYSIWYG like" editor is the next step
Not full richtext mode, but something similar to Marktext
You might not need one more, but I'm having fun making it and the work is here, so why not sharing it
Next step is "WYSIWYG like editor" And the addition of different Plugins
Will have to check it out, thanks
Thanks you !
I want it to look nice and easy to use while keeping some power under the hood ;-)
Just to be sure
Create an issue with the list sample so I can try it out by myself, it will be easier to debug ;-)
I'm not to much worried about the syntax, KleverNotes follows Common Mark, so as long as the other app follows it too (which it should) this part is okay
I'm more worried about directory structure and things like that, but I'll have to read more about both API before I can really say anything concrete on this subject
By the way, if you have something in Joplin that you really can't live without, let me know, I'm always looking for pottential features :)
You make a good case for it! But one thing that I also have to consider is the ease of implementing this into my C++ parser...
Right now I don't see how that would fit into the app to be honest, I'm not fully against the idea, but it would have to be nicelly integrated and I don't see how it would be (mostly in terms of UI/UX)
There's also KDE sonnet, I will have to look further into this, but that will most certainly be a future addition to the project!
My first plan is to add NextCloud Note sync
But if the two are compatible let's go for it ! Thanks for sharing this
If you have a KDE dev account and want to contribute, feel free to do so But, obviously, if you want to work on a new feature, it would be better to first talk to me to see if this align with the general idea of the project
Donation, no need for money, unless you really love the project and absolutely want to give something to me. I'm just a student who want to share it's work to make it better :-D
Yes please, test the app, I'm always looking for constructive criticism !
And moral, I'm good, but thanks for asking !
Thanks !
What do you mean by support ? :-)
I don't have a Next Cloud instance but I don't see why this would not work :-)
Just need to walk the folder hierachy to your note
RSS feed looks good but to be honest I'm completly clueless about it, never used one
I'm posting detailled update on KDE Discuss (see the "last update" link in this post) when I've made enough progress in my opinion I think you can search them using the "klevernotes" tag
And I make Lemmy and Reddit post linking to those each time
Edit: and if you want to ask question, my dm on those platform are always open, or there's a Matrix channel (not super active, but I check it every day), the link is in the Readme of the project
KleverNotes, KDE's Markdown note-taking and management application using Kirigami, is ready for its first release!
KleverNotes lets you create and preview Markdown notes while giving you the freedom to customize the preview from settings or using a CSS theme.
You can organize your notes however you want with a combination of categories and groups, which will be directly reflected on your system in the hierarchy of your KleverNotes storage folders.
Simply choose your storage location and you're ready to write!
You can print your notes, add small sketches and even create specific tasks for each of them, all from the application!
Notes are saved as Markdown files in your KleverNotes storage for easy access. They support the entire CommonMark specification with extensive syntax. KleverNotes also introduces a small collection of opt-in “plugins” to extend basic markdown functionality, such as: code highlighting, note linking, quick emoji, PUML.
Special thanks
I would like to thank Carl Schwan who helped me through the incubator process, has set up the repository and the various KDE related things, fixed my code, and answered my many questions. The project would not be where it is without him.
History
I started KleverNotes as a small personnal project to learn QML and C++ and motivate myself to take notes in class. After posting a few screenshots of my progress on Reddit, people seemed pretty interested, which inspired me to continue and redouble my efforts. Once it was added to KDE, my motivation grew even more, my final goal is now to be able to offer a simple alternative to QOwnNotes using Kirigami. (I actively use KleverNotes in each of my classes now btw 😬)
Final note
This release doesn't add anything special compared to my last update, just UI tweaks from Carl, which makes the app better looking. I just wanted to get things moving in order to officially push more updates in the future. A big one is in the works and should arrive soon once my exams are finished.
------
As always, I'll be more than happy to answer your questions, discuss potential features, or hear your point of view 😉
