## What it is
Neorg is a Neovim plugin for structured note taking, task and project management, time tracking, and document writing, all built on a single plaintext file format called .norg. It is written in Lua and aims to be an all-in-one, highly extensible organization tool inside the editor.

## Use cases
- take structured notes in neovim
- manage tasks and todo lists in the editor
- track time and projects with plaintext files
- write typeset documents and slideshows from text
- replace org-mode in neovim
- keep a personal knowledge base in plain text

## When to choose
- you live in Neovim and want an org-mode-like workflow
- you want one expressive plaintext format powering notes, tasks, and documents
- you value deep extensibility and integration within the editor

## When to avoid
- you need a mature tool with zero breaking changes between versions
- you want notes accessible outside Neovim without learning the .norg format
- you need a GUI or mobile note-taking app

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: active
- function: editor, markdown, documentation, workflow-automation
- domain: developer-tools, text-editors
- platform: editor-plugin, cross-platform
