I've used VimWiki for a couple years now. I use the most basic features (Enter, Backspace). The ability to instantly jump to the wiki is the most useful (Leader W W). My wiki is just a folder in my Dropbox so I can get to it on almost any computer.
When I started, VimWiki syntax was better supported than markdown. I've seen lots of markdown related pull requests come through, so maybe that's changed.
I use VimWiki for:
* Life goals (stretch and short term). I use it almost as a centering tool.
* Poetry
* Passages from books
* Book summaries (that I write)
* Lecture/Speech notes
* Notes on misc. items I want to explore
* Ideas for future science fiction short stories
Last summer I wrote a simple Awk script to extract VimWiki style definitions (Term::Definition) into TSV's for importing into Anki. I was frustrated that I couldn't fully automate this process without modifying Anki. Maybe someone else has figured this out?
- lambdasue 10y agoRegarding the Anki import, this Vim plugin might be of interest: https://github.com/tbabej/knowledge https://github.com/tbabej/knowledge Beware, highly experimental, and the documentation is lacking (reading the tests would be the best idea to get a feeling how the syntax works).
