Ask HN: How do you manage your notes?
Do you have a specific framework / methodology for taking notes ?
Do you take notes at lectures ?
Do you ever review them ?
What tools do you use ?
Thanks
- clra 9y agoThis may be oversimplistic for many people's use cases, but personally I write my notes in Markdown and store them all as plain text in a Dropbox folder. I search them the same way I search code with The Silver Searcher (`ag`) [1]. It works well for me and I don't run into any problems with being locked into software that's either not interoperable with anything else, or which is no longer maintained a few years from now.
