# Knowledge Base
This is a script that I use to manage my personal knowledge base. I have yet to
find a tool that fits my requirements / desires so I decided to build one.
This is still in early stages of development so expect braking changes to come
if you use it.
## Goals
### Mostly Plain Text
Most of my notes are currently in Markdown. This has a couple of advantages for
me:
* I can read them anywhere
* I can version control them with Git
There may be some exceptions. I may wish to include links or images which I will
version control with Git LFS; but for the most part, my notes are plain text.
### Tags
Before starting this project, my notes were organised into folders.
Unfortunately, this makes storing articles or notes that apply to different
areas difficult. I would prefer a tag based system. This would allow a file to
have multiple tags assigned to it.
### Fast
I want to be able to retrieve my notes quickly by tag or by title. To do this,
this tool will index notes using an SQLite database. This will not be version
controlled.
### Don't re-invent the wheel
I will be building on top of already great, fast tools such as
[RipGrep](https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep) and
[FZF](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf).
