Could someone enlighten me what is the biggest advantage or this and similar tools over libreoffice writer? I've been using it extensively for years for technical documentation, have hundreds of bitrot-free documents, and am extensively using:
* tables (2 or 3 columns depending on type, often using sort by column 1 or column 1+2 to keep relevant information grouped);
* preset formatting for different styles (snippets, commands);
* navigation using ToC (on a sideway navigation pane which is always visible);
* auto-generating anki flashcards from the content with no modifications;
* inserting external media;
I've used different methods to keep a single synchronized copy depending on work tech restrictions, i.e. nfs over ssh, sshfs, vpn via vm. Nowadays working from home I just keep everything locally.
What are the selling points to drop all that and move to something else?
headless export to html (on a dir), then parse each file to split per heading (1 heading 1 card). Back side contains the whole heading content, front side contains rule based text to guide what the question is looking for, so may contain
* bold words, indicating you should recall info within;
* command explanations from tables, indicating you must think of the correct command;
* other text prepended a specific word of style;
it's really up to you to make rules. Once a split is done, dump the parsed html into txt and load from anki and you get 1 anki file per directory, with cards split by heading, but grouped by file name, i.e. https://imgur.com/a/NgBzI15
I meant navigating quickly within headers of the same document. Certainly you can insert links to external documents, but it feels more useful theoretically than practically, as you'd seldom open a document looking for a specific thing, and decide to read the general supporting articles too.
