I had also been thinking about this.
Workflowy can export outlines as plain text, so was wondering of how to convert to markdown e.g.
Convert from:
- l1
- l2
- l3
- l3
- l4
- l2
(couldn’t figure out how to stop auto conversion from " -" to html - but the workflowy format uses “-” and spacing to indicate indenting/list level
Convert to:
"# l1
"## l2
"- l3
"- l3
" - l4
(just using " to stop conversion to html formatting)
I am not much of a programmer but should be straightforward with some find/replace regex. Obviously will depend on what nesting you have - you might want l3 or l4 to be markdown headers.
