#ResearchAtelier notes

##Requirements

  • We need a datastore of some kind, maybe Core Data or SQLite
  • the purpose is to store any conceivable resource related to the user's need. audio, video, etc.
  • they need to be linked together with some form of wikilink
  • a commonly used syntax, e.g. markdown should be used(perhaps a github flavor for betterness)
  • allow users to use their own stylesheet if desired when in preview mode of the html.
  • the app should be project based(similar to devonthink).
  • quickly add pages from the web to the project
  • view pdf and hopefully search through them(annotation not necessary but a bonus)
  • don't tie the user down with a format, allow them to edit on computer if desired(this rules out proprietary data formats and maybe sql). we would like some form of sync but reading the data may be hard. perhaps a server based solution is possible? or an application? if an application it shoud be cross platform which would mean that couldn't rely much on Cocoa frameworks for the datastore.
  • maybe the solution is sync to ftp or webdav, but an external editor would be necessary.
