What is Jimmy?
Jimmy is a cross-platform, open-source tool that converts notes from various proprietary applications and document formats into Markdown. It solves the problem of vendor lock-in by enabling users to migrate their data between different note-taking apps and preserve it in a future-proof, human-readable format. The tool works offline and supports both command-line and interactive terminal interfaces.
Users of note-taking applications (like Evernote, Notion, Obsidian) who want to migrate their data, developers needing to batch-convert documents to Markdown, and individuals seeking to archive their notes in an open format.
Developers choose Jimmy for its extensive format support, offline capability, and lack of external dependencies. Its unique selling point is the combination of a broad range of supported note app exports with a simple, standalone executable that requires no installation of additional runtimes.
