siyuan

Overview

This release, SiYuan is renewed throughout, bringing a more polished interface, stronger extensibility, and a step further toward intelligence.

Redesigned user interface

More polished overall, with clearer visual hierarchy, so every interaction is a pleasure to use.

Mobile shorthands

When inspiration strikes, long-press the app icon to capture it instantly. Content is saved as a timestamped note with a customizable path, so no fleeting thought slips away.

Kernel plugin system

Plugins run resident in the kernel as a single source of truth, keeping every window and instance consistent, putting an end to data conflicts across multiple windows.

Command-line interface

Connect to the kernel's data layer directly without launching SiYuan, for scripting and automation tasks such as batch import/export, scheduled processing, and external-system integration, all in your control.

AI knowledge base

SiYuan Agent and vector embedding search have entered public testing. Converse with your notes in natural language, retrieve and manage knowledge semantically, and your notes now think.
