Oh, I haven't seen orgmode before, so I don't know what its features are. I'm not planning to add evaluation of code blocks (apart from Math blocks that is) due to the complexity it would add.

I'm very surprised you haven't heard of org mode - your product is essentially a reimplementation.

This is so much like org mode (or rather, a small subset of org mode) its fascinating and cool to me you had never even heard of it! Great minds...

Make sure to also look at org roam, it is more specifically why I won't personally have a need for Heynote any time soon, but it could maybe be inspiring for you going forward.

Essentially, it’s an environment for writing+outlining+task tracking+time management. It’s incredibly useful — you should definitely try it since you’ve used Emacs.

  • Just like emacs itself, it's hard to describe what org-mode is, since it has so many features, most of which any individual probably won't use or even know about. You didn't mention tables, hyperlinks, tagging, exporting documents...
