Say you are learning a technical subject (e.g. a new language, framework, technology etc.). How do you take notes? Some things that come to mind are:
* By hand on paper
* In Markdown (Boostnote etc.)
* Plain text
* A different format such as Anki |

I am working on something like that to help me manage the (various) topics I am interest in. Most people rely on org-mode or wiki or github issues (I do all of them and it is a mess).
There is tools like zotero but they are more for academics + bibliographies.
What I need is something like https://eccorem.com/apps/improved-history.html but more structured and with the ability to take notes, upload images, add links + code and data.
Stating the obivous, coding is really helpful to learn a new subject. Even if it looks like NIH and wheel-reinvention. Don't forget to share your findings.
