![]() While LogSeq and Roam function very similarly, LogSeq isn’t quite as refined. Like Roam, LogSeq renders text live when you switch to a new line. The User Interface in LogSeq is very obviously influenced by the user interface in Roam Research. We’ll dig deeper into backlinks in the next section, but it’s worth calling out here because being able to see and link related pages is an important facet of the user interface and Roam does this better. Roam also includes a section at the bottom of each note that shows the backlinks, making them more easily discoverable for new users. This is a great way to work with your text. It has a clever way of displaying the raw text when you click a line, then rendering the preview when you switch the focus to another line. ![]() The user interface is where Roam really shines. The addition of the Live Preview allows you combine these though, much like Roam Research does (though not all plugins support it yet, which makes it a little clunky). I actually prefer to write this way as the preview gets updated in real-time, but it’s not entirely discoverable for a brand new user. You can actually hold the Command key when you click on the Preview icon to open the preview in a new pane, which gives you a side-by-side view of your note. You can switch modes by clicking the icon in the top-right of the document pane, but if you switch back and forth a lot this can be a little tedious.
