About Emanote
Emanote builds websites from plain-text notes: a personal page, blog, wiki, Zettelkasten, notebook, knowledge base or documentation. It reads Markdown files with wiki links and directories, and HTML templates allow complete theming.
While you write, a live preview updates in real time, and the result can be published as a site. It is described as a successor to the neuron note tool. It suits people who already keep notes as Markdown files and want to publish or browse them as a site.
