What's the best way to use dynalist to write an article

personally i just use app.classeur.io, I think its a very native way of writing guides / posts. Follows traditional markdown formatting and writes kind of like writing a post on talk.dynalist.io (discourse forum)

I wrote this post yesterday

below is what my raw document looks like as i typed it out

I literally didn’t even look at wordpress at all when I published above document. Formatting comes out 90% on point, and it handles code snippets well too using traditional markdown formatting like ```python {code snippet here} ````

What’s also nice is that when i wrote my blog post in app.classeur.io its platform independent as it follows all standard markdown procedures, meaning 100% portable. I use my own imgur + shareX setup to quickly make all my images and have 3 layers of redundancy built in in the event I lose data (directly through app.classeur.io, 1 through my wordpress host, and a direct backup to dropbox through wordpress admin)

below is my general setup

When I write long lengthy technical manuals I prefer using gitbooks.io

Example of one I’ve written for shareX + image server setup

this doesn’t really answer your question but this is the work around that i use

you can probably make your own version of markdown export from dynalist, another use made one for mac users
