The endless quest for a great notes-taking tool
- taking notes easily, preferably markdown (love its simplicity and I seem to remember it pretty well, maybe from stackoverflow's training) - must be available everywhere, I don't want to sync folders over dropbox or stuff like that across my computers, tablets and phones... it should be hosted maybe on AWS and be available as soon as I type my domain (even public would be fine) - must be simple to edit (with a password at this point, no public editing :P) to add pages - must be simple to add images (cut/paste and/or drag and drop) on the document - there must be a quicksearch (something like I start typing and immediately full-text search into the documents appear below with a small preview of the paragraph where my text was found)
I tried text markdown files + grep -> good but no sync across devices, no images (markdown files can't display that directly, I have to store the images somewhere and link to them, that's a lot of work without a 3rd party program) I tried google docs -> good but search is terrible, plus a lot of formatting complexity since it wasn't created for tech notes (text + images/graphs) I tried dropbox -> same issues as above, plus install stuff everywhere. Hate it.
So here I am asking again, maybe I'll be more lucky this time: is there a preferably opensource software (or combination of softwares) that will allow me to have simple tech notes in markdown with fulltext responsive search + extremely quick edit of whatever I'm seeing + web access from any device + paste images directly in those rendered MD files?
It's a VERY simple tool but since my memory is gradually failing (getting old), I'm looking for a way to have my knowledge, coding tips and snippets, programming guides, graphs, linux commands and stuff like that all at a glance at my fingertips.
Sorry for asking again something that has probably been asked a thousand times. As I said: I'm getting old :P
