The human memory is limited, especially in these days when there is so much information. So we all need to use some note taking software to help memorize, otherwise you will slowly forget a lot of things over time. But everyone has different needs and habits, so a large number of note taking tools with different characteristics have been created, such as Evernote, OneNote, Bear, ZoHo, Leanote, GitNote, SimpleNote, Boost Note, and Joplin.

When people think of "an edge tool for academic writing", LaTeX may be the first software that comes to their mind. Indeed, the mathematical formulas written in and academic articles typeset by LaTeX are very beautiful. But an ordinary user who has used LaTeX a few times could hardly like it, because its syntax is a markup language that is essentially designed for the machine, not for human to read - just as the HTML source code is designed for the browser, not directly for Internet surfers.
