Why This Project Is Awesome

Which criterion does it meet? (pick one)

  • Industry Standard - The go-to tool for a specific use case
  • Rising Star - 5000+ stars in < 2 years, significant adoption
  • Hidden Gem - Exceptional quality, solves niche problems elegantly

Explain:

Jimmy allows users to escape from proprietary note tools and their formats, by converting to Markdown. The Markdown notes can be directly edited, used for a migration to another note tool or simply kept as a human-readable backup.

There is a command line interface with full functionality and a terminal user interface with a reduced functionality, but easier to use for less tech-savvy users.

How It Differs

Compared to document converters, like Pandoc (that is used under the hood), MarkItDown or Docling, Jimmy aims to convert note structures. I. e. it doesn't convert only the documents, but tries to preserve links between notes, attached media and metadata (like tags or creation time).

Isn't the order alphabetically inside the Specific Formats Processing -> Markdown category? Or maybe I'm missing something?

- Markdown
  - Jimmy
  - Mistune
  - Python-Markdown

@marph91 Sorry, my mistake — there was no empty line before the markdown section, so I thought it was following the ReportLab entry.
