Why would they come up with their own way of doing this? Isn't Markdown "standard" fractured enough already (https://xkcd.com/927/) ?

haha, this xkcd is exactly what came to my mind when I'm reading the issue 1287 from the message of ScriptAutomate 😄

Yeah, that issue lists several different ways it could be implemented 😅

let's see whether Dendron has the guts to reinvent the wheels 😄

TIAL that there is a decent native terminal for windows: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/windows-terminal-preview-1-13-release/

Oh man, I didn't know about this. I walked through a path for exporting Dendron into the format necessary for DevOps Wiki, but didn't know about the mermaid syntax differences

DenDown™

Would DenDrown be the heavy metal version?

if you submit a feature request, we can look into reformatting this on export

ours will be different 😅

SHweeet!

Too cool, not to share. (Not about Dendron) https://www.thespaceacademy.org/2021/04/jupiter-only-planet-in-our-solar-system.html

Was searching to see if there are scripts to export Dendron to Hugo compatible markdown. Found out that the distance between Dendron and Hugo is 1988km by car, 25h drive. https://pk.2markers.com/363114-369224 I am tempted to see if I can write an exporter for my needs in less than 25h 😁 (not really comfortable with JavaScript structure though, so it would be something in Python, might try writing a pod after that).

heh, we have a bunch of users that do hugo. the beauty of plaintext is that you don't need to use our pod interface as long as you can read markdown. @User already did something similar, tagging in case he has more to share on ☝️

TIL I should be paying more attention to the GitHub Changelog. Some examples: - You can now follow organizations - A new dashboard feed tab is in public beta and viewable now. I like it better than the current feed. - Other things https://github.blog/changelog/

they missed mentioning being able to get out of work with weekly outages 😅

Ooh, thanks for mentioning this! I've been wanting to follow https://github.com/collectionbuilder/ in particular and didn't realize that I could now! (It's a project about using Jekyll for library / archives collections.)

TIL you can write equations in Markdown even if your md editor doesn't support Latex:

md
![pi](http://latex.codecogs.com/png.latex?\frac{1}{\pi}=\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{9801}\sum_{k=0}^\infty\frac{(4k)!(1103%2B26390k)}{(k!)^4396^{4k}})

how is the live editing experience? does it cause a flicker when editing equations?

Yes, as you edit, the equation disappears and reappears causing the content below to bounce up and down. Annoying :/

TIL: How to stop images from breaking when exporting markdown as PDF! - Using the

vscode-markdown-pdf

extension - Add...

<div class="page"></div>
&zwj

- ...before the HTML which holds the image REF: https://github.com/yzane/vscode-markdown-pdf/issues/279

TIL you can organize your starred repos on github into lists now, so now you can star hundreds of repos without fear of drowning in them (kind of)

but u can only create 16 lists, which is kinda few.

i'll recommend u using Astral https://github.com/astralapp/astral

Yea, I saw that. Still just a beta so we can hope for more. Thanks for recommending astral, will have a look

This isn't exactly what I learned today, but today I did write this note summing up what I've recently learned about combining MathML & MathJax to make math formatting more accessible online: https://www.ryanpatrickrandall.com/notes/Accessibility/math-a11y

I have been trying to learn about all Dendron has to offer by trying to incrementally improve a part of my setup or workflow. Today I was able to create my first templates and schemas. I used a blog post by Dendron to help me out. Also, I played around with VSCode's nesting feature (brought in the 1.67 update) to try nesting different parts of the hierarchies I created. The good news is it worked 🎉 , the unfortunate news is that I couldn't create nests inside other nests 🥲 . I've attached links to some of the articles which helped me out. https://blog.dendron.so/notes/P1DL2uXHpKUCa7hLiFbFA/ https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_67#_explorer-file-nesting

Interesting usecase. Also tried nesting for something, but it didn't work, so I forgot what it was.. Oh yeah, might have been backups of notes. I use syncthing, so conflicts are named in a pattern. Wanted to easily diff them to see the changes. Have been postponing implementing a git workflow for backup, as a complement to the sync. Right now the sync works as an adhoc but a bit brittle backup system.
