Note taking softwares should be open and hackable
I prefer systems that are open and allow for easy extension for my note-taking.
# Open
- Ideally, it should be open-source.
- But, as seen by my extensive use of Obsidian, it doesn’t have to be.
- It should allow complete autonomy over the type and number of notes that we want to make.
- It should use an open format or allow for us to move to other platforms later on.
# Hackable
- It should have an API which could be used by others to devise their own workflows.
- It should allow for configurability to its core.
- Every user would have a unique approach to how they distill information. They should be able to mold the tool according to their needs.
