Looks neat. I'll have to try it out first before thinking about buying it.

I've been using Gollum, a project from github. It's basically a wiki using ruby brick and git to serve the md pages. I think the hassle is having to start up gollum to use the wiki and having it run.

And I keep different subjects in different repos so switching between each repo and relaunching gollum is a hassle. The code highlight isn't so great with other languages such as Erlang iirc.

Does this just have one hierarchical page in each notebook? Say the python book, it seems like there's say a collection of pages, each of those pages cannot have nested pages?

Yes Quiver has a very simple hierarchy: notebooks and notes. But you can use tags and linked notes for more flexible note organization. Also, when there are lots of notes, the only practical way to find something quickly is a full-text search, which Quiver supports nicely.
Whoa.. is the full-text search per notebook or every notebook? Can I choose to search per notebook and every notebooks?

That sounds awesome!
