Quiver: The Programmer's Notebook is intended to increase programmers’ productivity. In this respect, the tool allows creating notes mixing Markdown and LaTeX text and editing code. Likewise, it lets you organize your notes and find them with its full-text search feature. Fortunately, the application comes with various tutorials and there is even an online wiki, which means you can easily find answers to your questions.
The application’s interface has been carefully designed. It supports light and dark modes. Besides, it comes with various themes, which you can customize to your like. Probably, its most distinctive element is the library, a sort of folder tree, in which your notes are arranged into notebooks. Besides, it is possible to assign tags to your notes as an alternative form of organization. Regrettably, unlike with other editors, it is not possible to use hashtags in the body of the text. Finally, it is good that the application lets you find any note almost instantly, as it supports full-text search.
An important concept in Quiver: The Programmer's Notebook is that of note, which you use to store information. Moreover, it is important to know that a Quiver note is comprised of cells, which allow storing different kinds of data, such as simple and special text (programming code, Markdown and LaTeX). Similarly, a cell can contain diagrams. Luckily, there are no limitations as to mixing different types of cells within one note.
Adding content to a given cell is extremely easy thanks to the application’s support of drag-and-drop operations. Thus, it can automatically create links to any file or image you drag and drop to a cell. In addition, of course, you can also type the text you want. Good news in this regard is that Quiver: The Programmer's Notebook comes with a powerful code editor. Conveniently, it supports syntax highlighting for more than 120 languages.
In relation to sharing your notes with other applications, it is important to point out that this tool stores the data in JSON files. This has the advantage that you can open those files with any editor supporting JSON. It also permits putting a library or a given notebook under version control. Besides, in an even simpler way, your notes can be exported as HTML and PDF documents. Still, it would be good if it allowed saving in RTF or DOC formats. If you need to share data between computers or with other users, you will be glad to know that it is allowed to save your notes to various cloud services, so that they can be synchronized across various devices.
All in all, Quiver: The Programmer's Notebook is a well-designed tool, with the potential to increase your productivity as a developer, as it facilitates accessing the required information more easily.
