Find it when it matters.
MoreInfo is a markdown-based knowledge base built around plain text. Wiki-style links, task management, daily journals, inline
calculations — all stored as .md files you own and
control.
Free · Open Source · MIT License
All your notes, tasks, and calculations — interconnected, searchable, and always stored as plain text files.
Give any page additional names with aliases: Eric, EAF. CamelCase is supported natively. Any alias works exactly like the page title — for wiki linking, unlinked mention detection, and search. One page, as many names as it needs.
Checkbox tasks with GTD-style @context tags, @due dates, priority ranking, and a Tasks widget and a dedicated page that aggregates across your whole datastore.
Annotations are lighter than a task, and allow for ideas and notes to be saved for your future self. Annotate your text in-line about things you want to remember with FIXME, NOTE, IDEA, and TODO tags. Or define your own. They'll all bubble up in the Annotations widget across the entire datastore.
Collapsible sidebars on all four edges of the editor, each holding any mix of widgets: Calendar, References, Tasks, Search, Outline, Counter, Browser, and more. Resize and arrange them to match how you think — the layout is yours.
Wiki pages can be based on templates, keeping structure and metadata consistent across page categories. Create templates for meetings, people, projects, etc., and get structured content into the datastore quickly.
Today's journal opens automatically on startup. Navigate your history and your future with a visual calendar widget. Stored as YYYY-MM-DD.md.
Every note you write is just a .md file on your disk. No proprietary format, no database lock-in, no account required. Use all the tools you already use.
An SQLite database is created as a speed cache — it automatically updates as files change on disk, can be deleted and rebuilt at any time. The markdown files are the sole source of all truth.
Open your notes in any text editor you choose: VS Code, Obsidian, iA Writer, vim, whatever. MoreInfo watches for external changes and syncs automatically. That said, MoreInfo's text editor is pretty great.
Your datastore is a single folder. Sync with iCloud, Dropbox, OneDrive, syncthing, git, whatever. Move it anywhere. It works wherever your files are.
Spotlight Features
The @calc block turns any section of your note into a calculator. Unit conversions, date math, and running totals — right in your markdown, no spreadsheet required.
Annotations are inline signals — TODO, FIXME, NOTE, and IDEA markers highlighted in the editor and aggregated in the sidebar. No checkbox, no state, no commitment.
Add typed metadata to any page using Jekyll-style or .sig block metadata. Strings, dates, booleans, and arrays — add arbitrary columns to your in situ database.
Any line starting with [ ] is a task. Add @context tags, @due dates, and priority numbers — all optional, all plain text. A Tasks widget and dedicated page aggregates them across the entire datastore.
Free, open source, and ready to use. Your notes stay on your machine — always.
