[TIL] There exist Journal apps using Git as Backend

Jan 3, 2026

As part of trying out this TIL series, I was exploring ways to make it easier to post small learnings daily through my smartphone. My usual workflow is create a markdown file > commit > deploy, all of which I do on my laptop as I find it more convenient for longer posts that require research.

However, the same workflow would create friction when posting a small TIL on the daily. And this is where I found GitJournal, it clones your repo and then you're all set to create and push md files.
