    As an Emacs user for over a decade I think this is brilliant, it solves my biggest gripes with org-babel which prevent me from using it in a team setting. Ledge is a lot like org-babel from Emacs, but for muggles: a familiar UI, and common format go a long way.

      I was thinking the same in terms of similarity to org-babel (which can make some very nice runnable notebooks).

      To be clear, is the issue with org-babel that it's not accessible to other people on the team? or something else that this solves?

        I think it's mainly an issue of preference. Markdown is common these days and already exists in READMEs etc. I know it so I tend to prefer it. I also require the ability to access my notes from my phone and that's more of a challenge with org-babel.
