About Ninox Database
2/1/2019
As you say, Skywatcher, very much a small-business setup - but also very common.
Sadly, Apple's rather erratic implementation of Apple Server lost a lot of credibility after they scrapped Xserves, an...
About Ninox Database

Sorry, folks, I realise my hijacking of the Todoist kanban thread with news of Ninox's latest Kanban support wasn't desperately helpful!

Todoist to offer Kanban boards (again)
1/30/2019
More info on Ninox's kanban views (and card and GANTT views) here:
https://ninoxdb.de/en/blog/release-25
The kanban view looks pretty cool - as do the GANTT and cards views. You can see how they all...
Todoist to offer Kanban boards (again)
1/30/2019
Interestingly, FileMaker competitor Ninox (a German app) has just added multiple possible views to its already impressive panoply of features, including GANTT and Kanban views.
It's an increasingly i...

Yes, the ongoing hiatus in further development of Hog Bay apps, and the peculiar decision to stop developing for iOS (regardless of the open-sourcing of TaskPaper's iOS code) have put a bit of a crimp...
I agree with Steve that Agenda isn't a true notes manager (like my ongoing fave, Notebooks); but increasingly, I'm using it as a task management app precisely because you can manage tasks and notes se...
Sorry, Beck, only just seen this: I've been experimenting extensively with NotePlan, but have discovered some very irritating discrepancies between the iOS and macOS versions (not least the lack of re...
NotePlan is one of those infuriating apps that's actually really clever, and does that most desirable of things (keeping tasks/events and notes separate, but enabling you to link them together), but n...
Perfectly true, especially since you can install Linux on most modern Chromebooks. And then you could run Dokuwiki as a private app off e.g. an SD card (it doesn't take up a lot of space compared to m...
Like Steve, I totally agree - notes are primordial (as the French say). OF does have fairly good note-taking facilities, but keeping a separate archive of notes alongside tasks is something nobody doe...
Hi Steve,
You might want to check out Findings, which is available for both macOS and iOS. Dunno if it matches your particular scientific discipline, but it's a very nicely designed app.
Cheers!

Dang, that does look interesting! Do you happen to have a Mac executable?
Thanks ever so,
Bill

Promising new notes app
12/2/2018
UpNote continues to improve: now includes support for Markdown, which it turns into instant rich text. This includes checkboxes (created using a simple [], rather than the more conventional - [ ]).
I...

Well said, washere. There are a few independents who contribute to conversations here (not least Pierre!), and it's always a great pleasure to hear from people with enough passion for a really interes...

@Amontillado: it sounds as if Scrivener would be a good fit with your needs; it's not just a writing tool, it's also a very useful information repository (with a good search function). The dual-window...

And the developer's enthusiastic notes accompanying version 3.2 (which updated just this morning on my machine) suggests this is just a temporary thing... he's rewritten a lot of stuff, apparently, an...

Ah, well spotted. I haven't corresponded with him in some time, so it's good to hear he's (re)committed to Quiver - hopefully also the iOS version!
Revisiting subscriptions
11/26/2018
Oh, wow, yes, Quiver appears to have disappeared from the Mac App Store as well!
Goodness, that's a huge shame. What a great app Quiver is - I guess that means it won't be developed any further. I'll...

Oh, and having said that development work on Notebooks appeared to be stagnating, I've just found the following post on Alfon's blog:

Ah, as the festive season lights up ahead I find myself confronting - once again - my long list of subscriptions on the App Store and Mac App Store.
Actually, it's a list that's rapidly getting short...
Promising new notes app

And UpNote continues to evolve - the latest version has been substantially improved.
Searches now highlight terms in notes (very fast and efficiently). Notebooks can be shown in the left-hand navigat...
Trunk Notes personal wiki closes up shop

Yup, that's what prevented me from taking it more seriously. It had a lot of outstanding features, including scripting. But without a desktop equivalent, it was difficult to turn it into the universal...

Sorting Thoughts?

The short answer is: no, and no. At least, not in the rather hasty experiments I've done. Clearly the editor doesn't run on HTML (unusual, nowadays), because it won't accept anything copied from a web...
