Congratulations on the launch! Downloaded and seems quite polished.
Recently found and use 30% of something called Obsidian so native UI and attachments are welcome.
I saw the option to view as Spreadsheet but wasn’t obvious how one was made? The concept of fields seems cool. Are there plans for data extraction/APIs?
Congrats again!
- ricg 5y agoThanks for your feedback! The spreadsheet view works in combination with metadata fields. Let's say you have a number of notes for your contacts. You tag each note with #contact and add a few fields like "Name", "Department", "Diet". Type #contact into the location bar to find all contacts and switch from there to the spreadsheet view. You'll get a list of your contacts and you can quickly tell who is a vegetarian, for example. Great for planning a party (once in person meetings are a thing again). Another neat thing: Add a new note and add the tag #contact. The right sidebar will now suggest fields and headings that you used in other contact notes. This way you can use the same fields to keep your notes consistent.
- jitl 5y agoReally nice design; do you have a “rename field” action for editing all those metadatas across matching tags at once?
- ricg 5y agoNot yet, but that's on my list. Same for headings. I'm still debating if I implement this as a separate "rename" feature or instead implement a project-wide search and replace.
