Notes are stored as local Markdown or Org-mode files in a folder the user controls, with daily journal pages as the default entry point, bidirectional links, a graph view, flashcards, PDF annotation, whiteboards and a Datalog-based query language for building dynamic views. Desktop apps run on macOS, Windows and Linux with mobile apps for iOS and Android; synchronisation uses the user's own mechanism (Git, iCloud, Syncthing) or the project's paid Sync service. Plugins and themes extend the editor. The team has been developing a database-backed version with real-time collaboration, which has slowed releases of the file-based edition; the outliner model can feel restrictive for long prose, and block-level file formatting is Logseq-specific.",18  "capabilities": [19    "Outliner editing with block references and embeds",20    "Local Markdown or Org-mode storage",21    "Daily journals, backlinks and graph view",22    "Datalog queries and dynamic views",23    "PDF annotation, flashcards and whiteboards",24    "Plugins, themes and optional Sync"25  ],26  "workflows": [27    "Journal daily and let pages emerge from links",28    "Annotate PDFs and link highlights into literature notes"29  ],30  "advantages": [31    "AGPL-3.0 open source",32    "Local plain-text files",33    "Block-level referencing"34  ],35  "limitations": [36    "File-based edition sees slower updates while the database version is built",37    "Outliner structure suits notes more than long-form writing",38    "Block syntax is Logseq-specific within Markdown files"39  ],40  "prerequisites": [41    "Desktop or mobile device; a sync method for multi-device use"42  ],43  "audiences": [44    "Researchers and students taking networked notes",45    "Developers who prefer open-source tooling"46  ],47  "alternatives": [48    "obsidian",49    "notion",50    "craft"51  ],52  "comparison_notes": "Obsidian is also local Markdown but page-based and closed-source with a larger plugin market; Logseq is open source and outliner-first.
