Proud to have given you your first star!

I am just getting into nb and really like the fact that it runs in the terminal. I am looking for a solution to sync nb to my Android. I can run nb in termux, but that doesn't seem like a good solution.

It seems like obsidian might be a contender, but not directly out of the box.

I am curious to know what your use case is, and what the future of this plugin is. Are you planning on making this something that an end-user can install to achieve syncing between nb and obsidian?

Any info you could give would be great. Thanks.

Hi, Thank you for the star 🤩🤍

Since this plugin is basically a wrapper over a child process calling nb sync, it might not be easy-to-use for a regular end-user. And as I searched while creating this plugin, I couldn't figure out a more dynamic cross-platform way of doing it. (Because nb sync essentially needs git and git needs to be accessible in a shell or something.)

Though I haven't tested if I can integrate this logic (creating a child process and calling nb sync) could work with termux or not. If it does, it would be suitable for using it in an Android environment too.

As of right now, I haven't figured out a better way instead of just creating a child process, and in my own experience it was kind of buggy sometimes.

Note that right now this plugins just uses the syncing feature of nb, which can be accomplished using the Git plugin too! I think many people are using it on an Android device.

Also on this issue you can find community attempts to use nb with other markdown editors. Take a look and you might find something useful there!
