Discussion on: I need a better code journaling app than Evernote.

[Christian Ransom]

Hi Bob,

What is it about Evernote that you don't like or don't think is good for a developer? What kind of features are you looking for that Evernote doesn't have?

1. turn my URLs into slack-like cards, so I can get some sense of what I "bookmarked",
2. Give me a better mechanism for linking pages in notebooks.
3. Better tagging UX
4. Better markdown support.
5. the Evernote web clipper is kind of a blunt instrument - more control.

That's off the top of my head. Any suggestions?

jupyter.orgIt is, took a look at the Ruby example. But not compelling enough to make the switch...
