I love a nice curated index. wiki’s list of PIC software. Curlie. awesome-\* lists.

Here are software that I’ve come across in my travels, and my experiences.

# Writing

#### Google Drive

I’ve always ended up doing most of my long-form writing in Google Drive - it’s just what I’ve used since growing up. Recently they’ve added some features that make it behave like an outliner.

 ![image](http://forum.0xdbfb7.com/uploads/default/original/1X/0a543560c9e17ade6953f3703512543203620887.png)

As of this date, the mechanism to combine and export the whole document, including all tabs, is in the [development build](https://www.googlecloudcommunity.com/gc/Workspace-Q-A/Google-Docs-Tabs-to-PDF/m-p/804171/highlight/true#M21445) only.

#### LibreOffice

LibreOffice has also added a slightly more limited subset of these features, using the Navigator view and this setting:

#### Scrivener

Proprietary Windows/OSX-only outliner; no Linux version

#### Manuskript

LaTex Beamer

Reveal.js - nice feature here over pdf is the speaker notes can be shown on the right  
downside is lack of archivability

# Git / GitHub

[Myrepos](https://myrepos.branchable.com/install/).

Saves one from having to git pull changes from remote. Helpful if you have a lot of repos to keep updated.

`mr register` each repo and then `alias upd="cd && mr update && cd -" `

no batteries-included support for repeating tasks

Open source

# [Leantime.io](http://Leantime.io)

Lots of ways of tagging new tasks.

Slow AF user interface.

# Notion

Apparently folks use this for task tracking. Powerful “paradigm” that I haven’t wrapped my head around properly yet. way beyond CRUD.

Obsidian Tasks

# Structured.app

well-designed linear to-do-list app. Used this for a little while but it didn’t quite work for me.

Android app is still WIP but functional.
