Lilo 0.2.0

Warning

Lilo is still under active development. Although this release passed automated checks, bugs may remain and some functionality may behave differently or fail on particular systems, desktop environments or vaults. Keep a current vault backup and report reproducible problems through GitHub Issues.

Lilo 0.2.0 brings the Daily Workflow preview into a more complete local knowledge workflow while keeping notes as ordinary Markdown files and settings as JSON.

Highlights

• Daily Notes, reusable templates, Quick Capture and a keyboard-first Command Palette.
• Hierarchical tags, tag usage counts, vault-wide tag renaming and structured saved searches.
• Image paste, drag-and-drop attachments, collision-safe imports and inline local image rendering.
• Back/forward navigation, heading-aware wiki links, unresolved-link discovery and safer link updates after renaming notes.
• Backup-aware vault-wide edits, Trash, rotating backups, diagnostics and vault export.
• Optional system-wide Quick Capture shortcut on Windows; Linux retains the in-app shortcut.
