Neorg is a Neovim plugin that provides structured note-taking, project management, task tracking, and document authoring within a single unified file format.
The tool addresses the fragmentation of organization workflows by building all features—notes, tasks, time tracking, slideshows, and typeset documents—on top of a single plaintext-based `.norg` file format. Users learn one format and gain access to integrated functionality across all use cases. The format is designed to be expressive and easy to parse, making `.norg` files usable outside Neorg itself. The plugin treats organization as a plaintext environment adaptable to any problem representable in text.
Neorg suits developers and knowledge workers who want a unified organization system within their editor and are comfortable with Neovim. It works well for those managing notes, projects, and tasks who prefer plaintext formats and want deep integration between different organizational concerns. The tool is young software, and the README emphasizes that users should pin their version and only update when prepared for occasional breaking workflow changes. A kickstart configuration is available for users without prior Neovim setup experience.
The project maintains active community channels including Zulip and Discord. Development includes a published roadmap documenting planned work. The codebase is written entirely in Lua, reflecting the plugin's design philosophy of leveraging Neovim's scripting capabilities for extensibility.
