Over my last two terms I've invested in using markdown with Pandoc to write any notes in class. I needed a way to be able to take math notes, and be simple to use. After migrating to Linux, OneNote was no longer an option. It's simple to use, as it uses markdown syntax for anything text based, and LaTeX syntax for inlined math formulas.

I as of recently also found out that VimWiki exists. I've started to use it because of the note linking capabilities. I'm starting to keep notes on events, certain tools, languages, and all other information I need in the wiki. It's also in Markdown which is nice.

Find tools that are close to what you want, and try to make your own suite. It may seem like a lot of work, but knowing your note taking solution inside and out can be very handy. When you're presented with something new that you don't know how to take down, you can evolve the system into being capable of handling it. Which you can do if you've make your own system, but using ready made solutions won't allow this.

+1 for VimWiki, it's just simple enough for decent note-taking although it's not as highly customizable as org-mode. Btw, I think the internal linking features and others do not work with Markdown syntax of VimWiki after the export, or have you figured out something ?

I haven't had a chance to integrated vimwiki into my school notes just yet. I havent used the export function in vimwiki yet, as I stick with viewing my notes in vim.

I'm not sure if HTML outputs the paths the same way that the vimwiki does, could you possibly use relative links or something? I can't get HTML conversion to work for me right now for some reason. You could also possibly compile all the notes at once, and use sections to refer to certain files. Similar to how LaTeX outputs sections.

I haven't tried using links after an export before. One thing to check might be the source code of the exported file? That might give you a hint of where the exported page is looking for its link targets.
