Every line an indentable bullet, every bullet a first-class block that can be referenced, embedded, and queried anywhere: Logseq is a privacy-first, local-first knowledge platform built around the block outliner. The daily journal is the system's beating heart - each day opens a fresh date-stamped page where tasks, meeting notes, and fleeting ideas land as blocks without filing decisions, then connect later through [[wikilinks]] with automatic bidirectional backlinks and ((block references)) that transclude any bullet into any page. Everything persists as plain Markdown or Org-mode files on disk - git-friendly, greppable, and owned forever, with sync via iCloud, Dropbox, Syncthing, Git, or an optional end-to-end encrypted service. Built-in tooling goes beyond notes: TODO/DOING task states with scheduling, native PDF annotation with area highlights, spaced-repetition flashcards, whiteboards for visual thinking, Zotero integration for researchers, and Datalog-powered queries that build dynamic views across the entire graph. A marketplace of hundreds of community plugins and themes adds AI chat, Ollama local-model integration, and custom workflows. Written in Clojure/ClojureScript, AGPL-3.0 licensed with 320+ contributors, and completely free - the local-first Roam for people who refuse subscriptions and lock-in.
