Being [a nicely designed lightweight +markup +language](https://karl-voit.at/2017/09/23/orgmode-as-markup-only/), +Org mode does not only benefit users of GNU/Emacs. There are many +tools and services supporting Org mode syntax documents that do have +no direct connection to GNU/Emacs. I would like to elaborate on the +advantages on using Org mode syntax for arbitrary text outside of +GNU/Emacs for better typing usability and collaboration tasks. + +Unfortunately, we do face some issues with the current situation. +First of all, we do already have a number of non-Emacs tools that do +support Org mode syntax. Then, we also do have an unclear consensus of +what it takes to "support Org mode" without re-implementing the whole +feature-set of Org mode of GNU/Emacs. + +For that purpose, I came up with a new name for the syntax of the Org +mode lightweight markup language: **Orgdown**. + +Please do visit the [Orgdown +homepage](https://gitlab.com/publicvoit/orgdown) and read my +motivation article [Orgdown - a New Lightweight Markup Standard for +Text Documents](https://karl-voit.at/2021/11/27/orgdown/) for further +information. # Outline - The term Org mode stands for different things - The Org syntax is better than much more dominant lightweight markup languages - We do have an unclear consensus of "Org mode support" - +- A new name for the syntax alone: Orgdown +- What Orgdown should be and should not be +- Advantages of Orgdown for everybody +- Orgdown comes in different levels: Orgdown1 +- OD1 Compatibility Percentage +- The future of Orgdown +- Your contribution! # Personal information |
