Hi,

I know this was discussed almost a year ago, but I also wanted to migrate form Note-Station earlier this year.  I did not find any conversion programs that fully supported the content fo the note files.  Many would not export simple things like  checklists or bulleted lists.  So I wrote my own!

It has a git hub project here YANOM Note-O-Matic.

There are pre built packages here releases

And the Wiki has plenty of information on how to install and use and it's capabilities.

There was a mention of 'tree structure' but I'm not sure what was meant by that.  Each note book is exported to its own folder.  If it meant the tag view which lists pages by tags... that can still be achieved using a markdown note system like Obsidian (it's free).   If it was meant that the notes should be exported into folders by tag.. YANOM does not currently do that but it is a thought... but you could end up with chaos as where would a note be saved if it has two tags?   The best way is to use Markdown files in a system like Obsidian as it will use the tags to do the organisation of notes by tag like note station does.

For moving notes I would not recommend moving to html as it's not easily editable or easy to organise.  If you use markdown you can edit, link notes easily and if you want a website/html you simply convert the Markdown files to html as needed.
