<p>I have recently been using <a href="https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki">VimWiki</a> to take all of my notes instead of Joplin, and it has been working really well. It has its own <a href="../definitions/markdown" style="color:#50fa7b">Markdown (.md)</a> format, but I use regular <a href="../definitions/markdown" style="color:#50fa7b">Markdown (.md)</a> with it. I use Syncthing to sync all my notes to all of my devices. There is barely any delay, so there are never any conflict issues.</p>

<p>VimWiki is a plugin for Vim or Neovim that allows you to create a personal wiki. On this wiki, you can add anything you want. It is essentially <a href="https://obsidian.md/">Obsidian</a> but more minimal and scriptable.</p>

<p>Since it runs in Vim or Neovim, it is extremely fast, lightweight and has barely any bloat. It runs blazingly fast even on old devices. The capability is also extremely high, since you can edit files at light speed when you learn Vim or Neovim properly.</p>

<p>On my computers, I use Neovim to use VimWiki.

# VimWiki Is Terrific
|
||||
|
||||
I have recently been using [VimWiki](https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki) to take all of my notes instead of Joplin, and it has been working really well. It has its own [Markdown (.md)](../definitions/markdown) format, but I use regular [Markdown (.md)](../definitions/markdown) with it. I use Syncthing to sync all my notes to all of my devices. There is barely any delay, so there are never any conflict issues.
|
||||
|
||||
## What Is VimWiki?
|
||||
|
||||
VimWiki is a plugin for Vim or Neovim that allows you to create a personal wiki. On this wiki, you can add anything you want. It is essentially Obsidian but more minimal and scriptable.
|
||||
|
||||
Since it runs in Vim or Neovim, it is extremely fast, lightweight and has barely any bloat. It runs blazingly fast even on old devices. The capability is also extremely high, since you can edit files at light speed when you learn Vim or Neovim properly.
|
||||
|
||||
## How Is It Useful?
|
||||
|
||||
Using VimWiki, it is trivial to organise notes, ideas, diaries, to-do lists or even future plans. It supports tables, links and much more. There is even an option to export your [Markdown (.md)](../definitions/markdown) files to HTML, which allows you to create webpages quickly.
|
||||
|
||||
It allows you to do everything regular [Markdown (.md)](../definitions/markdown) can do and more. For example, you can have checklists with progress on them, like this;

|
