Trilium Notes

[!IMPORTANT] If you enjoyed this release, consider showing a token of appreciation by:

• Pressing the “Star” button on GitHub (top-right).
• Considering a one-time or recurrent donation to the lead developer via GitHub Sponsors or PayPal.

[!CAUTION] Sync version has been increased, so update of both the client and server are necessary.

[!IMPORTANT] For canvas notes, the “Mermaid to Excalidraw” feature is no longer functional for now since it relies on an old version of Mermaid diagrams. To avoid having a large library duplicated, we had to let go of this feature. If it’s an important feature to you, let us know.
