First public build of Folio, a native notebook app for VitruvianOS (a BeOS-like OS based on Linux) and Haiku in the spirit of OneNote, with Obsidian-style [[wiki links]] that are rewritten when the page they point to is renamed or moved.

Tested on VitruvianOS 0.6.2 (amd64, in VirtualBox): installing this package, the Deskbar entry, first launch, page and link renames (in Folio and with mv in Terminal), moving pages, to-dos, tags, search, attachments via the file panel and by drag and drop from Tracker, and Move to Trash with restore from Tracker. Not yet run on Haiku; bug reports from there are very welcome.

On VitruvianOS the command key is Ctrl: where the docs say Alt, use Ctrl (Ctrl+R renames, Ctrl-click follows a link).

Install (VitruvianOS 0.6.x, amd64)

sudo apt install ./folio_0.1.0-1_amd64.deb

This installs Folio to /system/apps, adds it to the Deskbar's Applications menu, and adds a folio command. It is built for VitruvianOS 0.6.x and needs a rebuild for 0.7.

On Haiku, build from source: make && ./Folio.

What's in it

  • Notebooks, sections and pages in a tree. Pages are stored as plain Markdown files under ~/Notebooks.
  • [[wiki links]] and Markdown links that are rewritten when a page, section or notebook is renamed or moved, including renames made in Tracker or a terminal.
  • Backlinks, #tags, to-do checkboxes, full-text search, and drag-and-drop attachments.
