An occasional post from The Markdown Handbook.

Among today’s links are markdown editors Autype, Dokieli and Jotter, a personal wiki for Vim, and a free scrap note app called Papelzhino.

  • Autype is a headless document engine built for developers, AI agents, and automation platforms. Allows you to switch between markdown and json with a single click. The free tier gives you up to five files to try out; thereafter it costs from $24 per month.
  • Papelzhino is available free from the App Store. It is not a markdown editor as such, but there’s no reason you can’t add a bit of markdown yourself. Rushed for time and just want to scribble something down? Just had a thought and don’t want it to disappear into the ether? That’s what Papelzhino is for. Scatter multiple separate thoughts across your screen at once, then close, or crumple, a note and it goes straight in the waste bin.
  • Dokieli is a clientside editor for decentralised article publishing, annotations and social interactions. It is aimed at researchers, journalists, teachers, bloggers and technical authors, among others.
  • Jotter is a modern, free notes app for Android. Its focus is purely on speed, simplicity and privacy. It offers no distractions and there’s no tracking. Get it on Android.
  • Vimwiki is a personal wiki for Vim. Install it from a Vim package or one of the other options available. It allows you to organise notes and ideas, manage to dos, write documentation, maintain a diary, and export everything to html.
