Hi HN!
I'm very excited to be able to present Catalog to you here. In fact one of the reinforcements for my vision came from a post I read here a few months ago:
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18858538 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18858538
This app checks out almost all desirable features described in that post:
- Free and open source
- 100%-internet-independent.
- It works on all the platforms: Windows, Mac and Linux
- It uses SQLite as the store format of metadata, which makes it easy to read and modify programmatically.
- A node can be either a filesystem resource: a file / folder, or a hierarchy building block: a category
- All desirable metadata can be created by the user through categories
- Search for files: by name OR by an ancestor category of the file
You're welcome to leave questions here, and I will try to address them as best as I can.
