    Interesting. First time reading about it*. Were it not for you, this might have been completely off the radar. So thank you for mentioning it!

    But I’d guess that for most tasks, Emacs org-mode is the most powerful option.

    Yeah, it has been slowly growing on me 😜. But I would like to explore all other options before I fully commit.

      What makes LEO great for consistent larger documentation is that one can write things like footnotes or a glossary in nodes which can be linked into multiple pages - much like files with multiple hard links in a file system.

      Also, it can re-read exported generated files into a structured outline, which is managed under version control.

      Also, good support for literate programming, which is Don Knuth’s perhaps greatest idea.

        LEO definitely looks like a cool project. It has made me curious and I would like to try it out. Thanks (again)!

        However, before I do, I would like to verify if folding[1] a section/heading in Markdown -as demonstrated in the gif- is possible with LEO. Could you please confirm this for me?

        Very interesting concept. I believe I stumbled upon this video about a week ago. Together with two other videos, It has been at the very top of “Watch Later”-list since. But I haven’t gotten around to watch it yet 😅. I believe the topics are related. Am I right? Regardless, I’ll definitely take a deeper look into literate programming. Thank you for mentioning it!

      You’ve already discovered the best editor. There’s no need to explore more. ;)

        Hehe 😜. Perhaps the purpose of this exploration is to cement the idea that I’m already on the best 😂. We’ll see 😉.
