## What is Dnote?
|
|
|
|
Dnote is a lightweight personal knowledge base. The main design goal is to **keep you focused** by providing a way of swiftly capturing new information **without having to switch environment**. To that end, you can use Dnote as a command line interface, browser extension, web client, or an IDE plugin.
|
|
|
|
It also offers a seamless **multi device sync**, and **automated spaced repetition** to retain your memory.

|
## Personal knowledge base
|
|
|
|
Dnote is great for building a personal knowledge base because:
|
|
|
|
* It is fully open source.
|
|
* Your data is stored locally first and in a SQLite format which is [suitable for continued accessibility](https://www.sqlite.org/locrsf.html).
|
|
* It provides a way of instantly capturing new lessons without distracting you.
|
|
* It automates spaced repetition to help you retain your memory.
