BoostNote > Multi-Platfrom, Multi-Pane Text/Code editor (Free Open Source)

Ooh, now, I don’t agree with that. Well, I do agree, in that the editor is a totally basic text editor, without the hybrid Preview we’re all getting used to now thanks to Ulysses, Bear etc.

But Joplin’s editor supports the full GitHub syntax plus a bunch of other goodies (e.g. Math markup), and the dual-pane preview makes the lack of hybrid preview much less problematic. You can produce relatively sophisticated pages in Joplin (although it doesn’t support HTML syntax, which is a shame in my view).

However: no, it’s not in the least like BoostNote or Google when it comes to snippets. But it does have a pleasant combination of folders and tags.
