>if you want to really use it [org-mode] anywhere but inside emacs, good luck to you

I wonder if org could be ported to provide a language server via lsp, and in so doing become cross-platform?

Org really is a superior markup format.



Can it be used without elisp?


Pandoc can read from and export to Org format. As well, there are a number of Org parsing libraries in other languages; see https://alphapapa.github.io/org-almanac/#Parsing


It can be used as a "dumb" format and even then it's superior to e.g. markdown.

The real magic requires code of course, but it doesn't have to be elisp.
