Alternative to Create Text Documents

i wanted to create a meeting protocol for my school.

I tried using both Microsoft Word and Libre Office. I am too dumb for those tools.

The Topics and Formats where mixed in all weird and in the end, I spent like 3 hours on a simple 3 page document. It was very hard why the spacings on page 1 where somehow different from page 2 and the intendation was wrong all of a sudden too.

Is there an alternative where I can create such documents like an html with a source code? What would be a good editor for such a document creation tool?

I use windows 11.

For simple meeting protocols .txt is what you need another one would be .md. In .md you can insert images and there are quite many processors that can render PDF or HTML out of it.

Can Markdown create an Index that automaticly refers to the number of pages et cetera?

Not out of the box but I am sure there are tools for it, you need to find procesor that covers your requirements

was looking for a solution, not more problems! :smile:

Right now, I’m checking out MikTex and Tex Editor."

I recommend using LaTeX through Overleaf, especially for academic papers.
