That’s when I started using the Bear app. Again, I wanted to try to find an all in one solution. Also, I was still using Workflowy for my other notes. (For text editors, I was using Sublime Text for while, then Atom and now VSCode.) But then I would have to eventually exports these files if I needed to share them. So it was a tool I was already using regularly. For awhile I was using my text editor to write in Markdown, since I was coding web projects as well.
#Notion vs workflowy code
I started using Markdown for writing course notes because it was an easy way for me to format the text blocks into headings, paragraphs, bolded or italicized text, links and code blocks and convert them to HTML, when needed. A lot of this needed more formatting options than what Workflowy had. I needed a way to not only organize my general notes and tasks, I was now writing content for slides, scripts for videos, planning out code snippets and exercises, visuals and graphics. This was fine for awhile, until I started creating more educational content, specifically code based content. I would also plan out my daily tasks by using hashtags to organize them by specific days, projects or priority. I also used their hashtag feature to organize ideas into groups or projects. So I liked the option of being able to focus on a specific page or be able to see everything from the main page. The bullet points could also be expanded or collapsed from the main page as well. So instead of having one long page with a bunch of notes, each point could open into its own page, which made it easier to write specific or more detailed notes for each point, idea, or project. The interesting thing about the bullet points was each point could become its own page. But as much as I wanted something simple, I still wanted s ome extra features or else I would just use a notebook! I could write in paragraph form or bullet points. I loved that it was simple, as if I was writing notes in a notebook. In my search for a new tool, I started with Workflowy. But when I started moving away from doing team projects and more independent projects, I found it wasn’t as useful when I was working by myself the majority of the time. I switched to Asana for awhile and was happy with it. And although I really liked Todoist for task management, I didn’t want to use a separate tool. I wanted something that was more basic than Evernote, to plan and organize ideas. I had used Evernote, Todoist and iCal in the past but wanted an all in one solution. When I started freelancing more, I found that I needed a way to manage multiple projects more effectively. In this issue, I want to talk about some general workflow tools I’ve used over the years that I have found to be super useful. In a previous newsletter, I shared some resources for learning HTML and CSS.
As a developer and someone who is just generally on the computer a lot, I’m always collecting online resources and trying out different tools.
