Tine
Tine is a free, local outliner that works with Markdown files in the same on-disk format as Logseq, so users can open the same graph in either app without importing or exporting. It supports split panes, separate tabs and histories, and layouts that remain after a restart. Search can use filters, and a visual query editor keeps in sync with query text while showing results as a list, table, or board. Sheets can turn bullets and their children into grids, typed-field tables, or boards, with formulas, filters, aggregates, grouping, and CSV or TSV import. Tine can publish graph pages as a static site with search, tabs, split view, and navigation, without requiring a server. It has no built-in sync; users need to bring a service such as Syncthing, Dropbox, or git. The maker says graph and note contents are not uploaded to Tine servers. Plugins run in a capability-limited sandbox, but the plugin API is experimental and does not support Logseq or Obsidian plugins. Android builds are available through F-Droid or GitHub; iPhone and iPad access is a public TestFlight beta with no App Store listing yet.
