Anytype, an Obsidian alternative, is now Open Source
We believe that any software should support fundamental digital freedoms. With the rise of cryptography and computer systems, it is now possible to guarantee these freedoms in the world of bits: privacy of thoughts, freedom of speech, right to authorship, and autonomy from software providers. These rights can be encoded into the code, which when open, can be freely verified by anyone. This way, trust among users and developers can be established.
This is our way. By opening our source code, we ensure that our users have complete autonomy and independence from the Any Association. They retain the ability to analyze, compile, and run each software component on their personal machines without relying on external parties. This guarantees uninterrupted access to the tools and data they generate and store, shielding them from any potential restrictions.
We see our products as an open ecosystem where the community can contribute in various ways, not only by committing to the core source code. Contributors can develop integrations, design themes, create use cases for the in-app library, or provide documentation and translations.
It supports some markdown syntaxes, e.g.
#for heading,*for bullets, etc.Thank you!
The image posted above is NOT markdown.
Headings for ex h3 are
### textnot# # # text> textis a blockquote not "a toggle list" whatever that meansHighlighting should be
==text==There is no such thing as a "dots divider"
The todo list I think is also incorrect.
Why the devs are calling this markdown who knows. I guess they do not read things, dngaf. If you dont want to support markdown then dont support markdown. For some reason this really irks me. It will confuse new MD users.
@sub_
After trying this out on my Anytype, this appears to be a UI bug. Trying to do
# # #will actually result in H1.###is an H3. A "dots divider" appears to be an horizontal line with different UI.There's some weird stuff for sure but it's also worth mentioning there's many flavours of markdown out there.
Idk who in the world would change
>from being blockquote to some kind of list. It is a standard used since long before markdown ever existed. A list and a quote are totally dissimilar parts of document and switching to render one as the other would be terribly confusing.The point of md is simple interoperability and portability.
For anyone who is interested: markdown basic syntax. I do not think the above constututes a flavour of md.
There is no Markdown standard. That said, people generally agree on using
>for blockquotes when talking about Markdown. Markdown was also not created for interoperability and portability though many people try to use it as such.
