Hello,

I am intrigued by block based apps and wanted to explore some apps before I dive all-in.
Currently, I’ve checked xtiles, walling and organizedly.

xtiles has decent UI but doesn’t seem to have proper list view and tagging functionality
walling seems to have decent task manager + block based structure but no graph view
organizedly seems to have all of it but I am not sure if it’ll be around after few years. I’ve hardly seen youtube videos too.

So reaching out to the community if there are any options I might be missing out on.

Do you mean graph as in boxes and arrows or graph as in function graph? If the former, then you might want to check out our https://www.hyperplan.com software. The professional edition supports box and arrow graphs.

Yes, check out Hyperplan. But also consider Scrintal or Heptabase. Where Walling and xTiles are more structured as to how your blocks (tiles or cards) are shown on the page, Heptabase and Scrintal are more free form.

Watch this video for Scrintal: https://youtu.be/VeyTDh0n-yw

I wrote an article comparing those four apps:

I meant graph as a way to connect all related notes, kinda like how organizedly does it.
Very simple example - I read a book about c++ templates and create a “block” of note about templates.
Then I read some article about it and create another block of note. I would then want both of the notes linked so they’re connected.

You may even want to look at mem.ai again..
their “AI” on surfacing notes just went live, and Napkin has an appealing but strange offer that does just that!
