TriliumNext Stable Release

❔ Why TriliumNext?

TriliumNext has started as a fork of Trilium Notes at the beginning of 2024. The reason for the work is that the upstream project has entered maintenance phase and we would like to extend the application. The work so far has focused more on the technical aspects because most of the work has been done by u/zadam and handing over a project of this size is non-trivial. Some more technical work will be done in the upcoming versions after which the project can focus on improving the user experience as much as possible.

Some of the current features are listed below and can be found on the readme:

Upcoming Improvements

🔡Support for multiple languages. (Work underway)
🚦Improving the existing theme and decluttering the UI.
📱Mobile improvements.
⌨️Exploring additional editors such as a MarkDown-based editor.
📓Improving existing documentation. (Work underway)

⬆️ Porting from Trilium Notes?

There is no change in the database structure. TriliumNext Notes can be run instead of the original Trilium Notes and it should work out of the box, since it will reuse the same database. It should also be possible to downgrade back to Trilium Notes if required, without any changes or loss of data. Similarly goes for the server, it should work out of the box. It is possible to mix and match between Trilium Notes and TriliumNext Notes.

Do you use Helm Charts? We've got you covered!

🐞 How stable is it?

Generally you should not encounter any breaking bugs as the prior versions have been tested and daily-driven for a few weeks now. Should you encounter any issue, feel free to report them on our GitHub issues.

✨ Key Fixes/Improvements

v0.90.4 (Stable)

Re-introduced ARM builds
Docker container marked as not healthy
Find/Replace dialog doesn't match theme

v0.90.3 (Stable)

Fixed Error importing zip file
Fixed Alt+Left and Alt+Right navigation would not work under Electron.
Added a fresh new icon to represent our ongoing effort to improve Trilium.

v0.90.2-beta

Fixed some issues with the sync.
Ported the server from Common.js to ES modules.
Updated the CKEditor from 41.0.0 to 41.4.2.
Updated Electron from 25.9.8 (marked as end-of-life) to 31.2.1.
Started adding support for internationalization (#248). The application will soon be able to be translated into multiple languages.

v0.90.1-beta

Introduced a Windows installer instead of the .zip installation. 
Bug fixes related to the TypeScript port of the server.

v0.90.0-beta

(This should improve the stability of both current and future developments thanks to the language's type safety. It will also make the development slightly easier.)

Glad to hear! Would you mind sharing how you migrated from OneNote? We would like to make that migration path easier for future migrants.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Sorry, this isn't helpful. I migrated the hard way, hah. I just went to each page in OneNote and hit ctrl+a, copied that and pasted without formatting into TriliumNext, then fixed the formatting.

It took some time, but was worth it to me. I figured it would be a good test to help me familiarize myself with TriliumNext a little.

An easier path to help adoption would probably go a long way, but it also might eat up a lot of development time and routinely need work. I'm not sure how often the OneNote export formats change.

Ok, thanks for your feedback!
