zk

Command-line plain-text Zettelkasten and personal wiki assistant with templates and advanced search.

Desktopfreeglobal

A command-line tool for maintaining a plain-text Zettelkasten or personal wiki, offering templated note creation, tag/link/mention filtering, an fzf-powered interactive browser, git-style command aliases, and integrations for LSP-compatible editors, Emacs, Neovim, and VS Code, with notes stored as Markdown. It helps keep a note system portable and editor-agnostic for knowledge-builders and developers who prefer CLI workflows and self-hosting, and is not aimed at users who want a GUI-first all-in-one app.
