What we like

Converts Markdown content into a fully-featured website with a digital garden philosophy. Includes search, graph view, wikilinks, backlinks, Latex, syntax highlighting, RSS. Generates static output that can be hosted anywhere. Build & run locally with hot reloads. Customizable colors, layouts and theming.

Tradeoffs

The philosophy is based on everything being public, which might not suit how you want to take notes. Quartz supports private pages, but it requires additional config.
