http://montaigne.io - made this one for myself. Just publishes website from Apple Notes. Every time time I update note on my laptop or iPhone the site is updated automatically.

This is great.

After getting burned out of blogging after maintaining my own platform (instead of just writing), something like this is appealing to me.

had the same problem with previous platforms so made this new tool. I think I've road 6 posts in the past month. So hopefully it will help me to write more too.

That sounds extremely useful.

Is it possible for others to use this as well ?

It's still early stages. So I have like 5 sites build with it so far. Eg my personal site https://podviaznikov.com

But try to signup. It should work for other people too now. It just not polished yet.

I absolutely love this concept.

thank you! I tried many setups over the years and then realized that I have 4000 notes in my Apple Notes anyway. And I have my drafts there and it works across devices.

surprising to me how it works export Apple Notes to website?

I need to write a blog post explaining this in more detail. But basically Notes are shared with public account, then they synced automatically to the apple mini machines in the cloud. Using Apple Script they are exported and saved into DB and then render and published.

Non trivial. I wish there was an API.

This is fantastic.

thank you! still WIP
