    My apologies. Some watchful people noticed that collaborative writing is not on the feature list. I asked the developer to be sure, it may be added in future, but is not yet.

    Reminds me a little bit of VNote, just with a simpler interface.

      Thanks, I did not know VNote. It sounds more like Obsidian (which I currently use) to me, MarkDown note taking.

      At least the VNote GitHub page does not mention references, collaborative writing or export formats.

    Can I use it to edit a file with others or what does collaborative mean?

      I thought they told me at the meeting that it was a collaborative MarkDown pad, like CodiMD, but I cannot find it in the list of features. Maybe I misunderstood. I have asked.

        ooh, that’s a shame, it looks really awesome and we were planning on using it, thanks anyway!

          Maybe you can use Zettlr together with CodiMD/Hedgedoc. Prepare first version in Zettlr, copy the markdown to Hedgedoc, write with your colleagues and copy back to Zettlr to make the final formatted version(s).

      It is based on MarkDown. But it uses Pandoc for input and output, which if I understand it right can read and save LaTeX files (but this will likely not preserve much LaTeX markup; MarkDown is much simpler and does not fully define a print lay-out). https://github.com/jgm/pandoc

      Zettlr does support LaTex references, they both work with text files and they have a similar separation of content and lay-out. It may have LaTeX equations, either Zettlr or SciFlow; I am not sure anymore. https://sciflow.net

      (And nowadays LibreOffice has LaTex equations.)
