(ie: any future markdown/wiki addons or features like transclusion, substitution, macros, etc. This becomes especially true if/when dealing with multiple tables, or other complex markdown syntax that is visually very disparate from its resultant formatting. I personally don't think charging money for open source work is necessarily something to avoid, but I certainly can respect your position of never asking for money. I know this could actually be MORE difficult to develop.Įditing markdown per heading adds a ton of visual aid and usability in locating what it is you are editing, even by comparison to those side-by-side editors. My code is also free, and if/when you decide to do an 'official cherrytree' android app, you may of-course use whatever you find valuable. Athough with Zim, I definitely find myself wanting a keystroke to change back to markdown on a per-heading basis. Zim wiki has a nice situation in my experience, where you can type in markdown, and it automatically converts. In which case, I'm sure someone will tell me.

How do we imagine this? A hotkey that flips from one to the other? (That would be slow for large notes.) Or a split window with rendered below and the editor with unrendered text, above? While I'm enthusiastic about the idea, it seems to me markdown has the problem that to do this, Cherrytree will need to have two states: rendered and unrendered (eg, the text).
