I’ve been picking away at candidates for tools that facilitate spatial knowledge management / thinking for a little while now. Currently curious to see how Heptabase (https://heptabase.com/ nee Project Meta) and Gems (https://gemsnotes.app/) will evolve. Gems has my attention straight out of the box— not quite as well developed as Heptabase, but it’s accessible through mobile browsers, which is an essential requirement for my workflow. I like the way Gems places an emphasis on building a graph of notes, rather than wiki-linking your notes into a graph— fees like it could be a useful complement for the note-taking/making app I’m already using. Also, I see one of the upcoming features is node grouping— essentially sub-folders for graphs, which will hopefully prevent graphs with lots of nodes on different subjects from becoming unwieldy…
