Functionalities

User database: Users can sign up and log in to write and organize their daily 'Today I Learned' notes. This helps users keep track of what they've learned and reflect on their progress. By having a personal account, users can access their notes from anywhere and customize their learning experience. This approach helps users take ownership of their learning journey and adapt it to their own preferences and goals.

Create, view, edit and delete notes: ​​The notes are structured like Cornell notes, with sections for main ideas, details, and summaries. Our notes interface supports Markdown formatting, making it easy for users to format their notes and highlight key points. Additionally, we offer a code editor with various programming languages, allowing users to record code snippets relevant to their learning topics. Users can view and select notes by date, helping them track their learning progress and stay organized."

Flashcards: users have access to a flashcard feature to aid in recalling their learning. The flashcards present the main ideas from each note, allowing users to utilize short periods of free time throughout the day to reinforce their knowledge. By regularly reviewing these flashcards, users can improve their memory retention, enhance their learning outcomes, and boost productivity in their daily activities.

AI assistant: We have integrated the OpenAI API to assist users in categorizing their learning topics. Specifically designed for technologists, the AI can identify tags such as databases, testing, version control, and more based on the content of the user's notes. This feature saves users time by automatically suggesting relevant categories for their notes, allowing them to focus on capturing their learnings without the need for manual categorisation.

Analysis of user profile: users can access their profile page to view badges earned based on their study frequency. The profile also includes a calendar view that displays their study activities for each day, offering an overview of their learning progress within a selected month or year. Additionally, users can utilize the 'Show Statistics' button to visualize the frequency of topics learned through interactive bar charts. This comprehensive analysis empowers users to identify areas of improvement and enhance productivity by focusing on areas where they may be lacking knowledge or skills.
