WorkFlowy offers infinite nesting of lists, allowing you to break down tasks or ideas hierarchically. Its powerful search and filtering make finding information easy. You can tag items for quick reference and collapse or expand sections to stay focused. Basics | Features

Workflowy was first mentioned in 2021 and has proven itself to be a versatile JDex companion. Let’s use this thread for discussions about it.

Aha interesting.

You know what’d really help would be a tiny proof of concept with maybe 5 IDs? Then I can create the rest based on that. If you could share me a link I’d be most grateful…

Longtime Workflowy user here — thank you so much to @torbengb for creating this proof of concept, which I promptly yoinked for my own Workflowy setup.

@johnnydecimal, did you ever create the rest of these? I’d love to use them. Thanks!

Hmm. I did not. But I do remember looking at it. Honestly it might just have fallen in to the too-hard basket at the time? I think with the way we’d written the life admin stuff I realised it was gonna take forever.

One of the changes I made with the small business system is that the system itself is now structured code. (A TypeScript object with JSON-stringified Markdown, to be specific.) So that lets me manipulate it much more easily.

I plan on migrating LA to the same structure when SB is done. Enabling things like this.

None of this helps you now. :wink:
