I've started to experiment with a very interesting writing app, Lattics
(https://lattics.zineapi.com which uses a kind of "cards alongside
articles" approach, but with extra goodies like a mindmap-alike view.
It's this mix of rapid note jotting and long-form article writing that
appeals to me – you can, of course, do such things in any
number of other apps, but Lattics has what it describes as a "workbench"
approach that's particularly appealing. As is the auto-templated layout
and handling of references (a very convenient way to produce academic
papers, if one feels so inclined). Lattics also does the Ulysses thing
of combining multiple notes in a single scrolling view.
I've had a look. Fundamentally a very nice design; will be even better when the whiteboard is there too. I found the keyboard response very jerky, and couldn't see a setting to have the cards in a typical card view rather than a single column. @links rather than [[wikilinks]].
Has the advantage of being all in one, but doesn't have the features or (first impression) usability of my current Word, Mindomo, OneNote combo. Would integrate with Tangent/Obsidian quite well though since it's easy to drag markdown notes in. No first line indent for paragraphs either.
