Great work!
Can you expand on the Zotero integration? I like Polar for reading/annotating more than Zotero, but the metadata import and bibliography functionality of Zotero is extremely useful to me. Combining these in some way would be pretty amazing!
- burtonator 6y ago2.1 is going to focus on Zotero integration. We're working on two main changes. One is double the ability to export your Zotero and import it, including metadata, into Polar. The other is to just open the PDFs directly but I don't think we can get the metadata that way unfortunately.
- maxioatic 6y agoVery interesting. So would you potentially see Polar as being able to create bibliographies from the metadata? Or just storing it?
- burtonator 6y agoPossibly in the future. Right now we just want to store it so you can sort by journal, author, etc. That and you can search for those too. The issue is some researchers have a lot of PDFs and this metadata helps them manage them. We might be able to manage bibliographies inside of Polar but we don't have plugins like Zotero so that it would work in MS Word or Google Docs, etc.
