Hey HN! I'm the author of XLog. I built it because I wanted a knowledge base tool that combined: - Local markdown files (like Hugo/Jekyll) - Automatic backlinks (like Obsidian/Roam) - My text editor (Vim), not a proprietary app - Git version control built-in Most static site generators (Hugo, Jekyll, 11ty) are built for blogs. They're great at that, but they don't have knowledge-base features like automatic backlinks. XLog converts `Page Name` to bidirectional links automatically. When you write about "Machine Learning" and link to "Neural Networks", the Neural Networks page shows that Machine Learning links to it. No manual link management. |
