Neuron is a command-line application for managing plain-text Markdown notes in Zettelkasten style and publishing them as an auto-generated static website. It is written in Haskell and has been superseded by its successor project, Emanote.

Use cases

  • manage zettelkasten notes in markdown files
  • publish my notes as a static website
  • link notes with wiki-style syntax and tags
  • generate a knowledge base site from plain text
  • host my digital garden on github pages
  • search and query my zettelkasten from the command line

When to choose

  • you want a stable, mature Zettelkasten tool with a static-site publishing workflow
  • you prefer plain markdown files and editor integrations (emacs, vim, vscode)
  • you want to publish notes via GitHub Pages with minimal setup
  • you already use Nix or Docker for tooling

When to avoid

  • you are starting a new project - use Emanote, neuron's successor
  • you need a graphical note-taking app with live editing
  • you need real-time rendering or dynamic features beyond static sites
  • you want active development and new features
