Description

MindForger is a personal knowledge management tool (PKM) akin to Zim, Logseq, or Obsidian. It has an LLM tool (Wingman, OpenAI) to assist in reading and writing your notes. I'm interested in it as an alternative to Obsidian and Logseq, as it seems to be made with performance in mind. No electron, as far as I can see.

My knowledge is surface level, and it would do you good to take a look at the homepage. It appears to work with existing repositories of markdown files as well, doubling as more of a Markdown IDE than a notebook if need be.

It looks like the dependancies are pretty basic looking at the Arch PKGBUILD (qt5-base qt5-webkit zlib hunspell), but not sure if any troubles arise trying to build for Void.

Does the requested package meet the package requirements?

Compiled

Is the requested package released?

Research direction

Start with the MindForger homepage and the linked Arch PKGBUILD to understand the release and listed dependencies: qt5-base, qt5-webkit, zlib, and hunspell. Check how the package is built in void-packages and whether those dependencies are available on Void. Done means a package template that builds and installs MindForger successfully.
