MindForger is getting back in shape! This minor release brings significant stabilization and performance improvements, which MindForger has desperately needed for some time. I fixed long standing bugs and accelerated Markdown to HTML rendering. I switched MindForger from the legacy, slow, and fragile HTML rendering engine (QtWebKit fork abandoned in 2018 which I kept for Linux distro backward compatibility) to the latest and greatest one (QtWebEngine) which has been used by Windows and macOS for years. I also fixed and sped up math, source code, and diagrams rendering by switching to SOTA libraries, upgrading to the latest versions and fixing what was broken.
- Editation
- Rewrap Paragraph fills the paragraph/rewraps the paragraph under the cursor to 80 columns.
- Easily add emojis by clicking associated button when adding new Notebook/Note or editing Notebook/Note name or description.
- Markdown to HTML rendering
- Qt WebEngine, which is ~8x faster than Qt WebKit, is newly default HTML rendering backend on Linux as it already was on Windows and macOS.
- Math support now offers KaTeX (fast, offline @ QT resources included MF binary) and MathJax (legacy, upgraded, offline) instead of online CDN dependency.
- Offline Mermaid diagram rendering works again - mermaid.js was not registered as a Qt resource, so it always silently failed. Online option removed.
- Autolinking …

This major MindForger release brings wingman, notebooks tree and libraries:
- Wingman:
- Wingman is MindForger's integration with large language models which brings note-taking and knowledge management to the next level. MindForger newly allows you to easily expand your notes and knowledge by leveraging the power of artificial intelligence. Whether you need to prepare a plan, write an in-depth analysis, draft a blog post, or simply generate ideas. Large language model can fix grammar, translate, write, reformulate summarize, suggest synonyms and antonyms, and much more. You can effortlessly generate high-quality content, and enhance the organization of your knowledge.
- Notebooks tree:
- With Notebooks tree, you can organize notebooks in a tree (outline) just like notes in notebooks.
- By using a tree-like structure, you can organize your notebooks in a logical and hierarchical manner, similar to how folders and subfolders organize files on a computer. This allows you to break down your knowledge into smaller, more manageable chunks and helps you find and access specific information easily.
- Structuring notebooks to form a tree promotes better organization and clarity. You can create a top-level notebook, representing a broad topic or category, and then create sub-notebooks within it to represent more specific subtopics or subcategories. …
