### :coffee: DESCRIPTION

**Civilizer** is a web application for **Notetaking or Personal Knowledge Management (PKM)**

- knowledge/expertise/tips/tricks for your job
- temporary memo/notes
- schedules/plans
- detailed procedures you often forget for infrequent tasks
  - e.g., installing printer drivers on your computers, submitting a tax return, ...
- expressions/vocabularies (e.g. when you learn a foreign language)
- ideas/inspirations
- todo list for your job or life
- insightful maxims/proverbs/humors
- and whatever knowledge/information you may want to access later.

Civilizer looks like a notetaking application like Evernote.  
But unlike a native desktop application, it runs on your browser, so more Web-Friendly.

### :coffee: DESCUSSION
Civilizer can keep your data in various forms including:

- text
    - can be authored in [Markdown](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown) with a dedicated editor
- hyper links

- and other file types

It can help you efficiently organize/structure your data by:

- tagging your data
- relating data with one another
- bookmarking data you access frequently
- organizing your files in a directory structure

**Civilizer has a Full Text Search functionality** to greatly help you access right data at the right time

1. You'll see a ***System Tray Icon*** appearing **unless you run it on Linux systems**.

    - With the loading finished, the icon color changes, and Civilizer can be accessed via your browser.

        - Right-click on Civilizer's system tray icon (maybe left-click depending on your OS), and choose the menu saying ***`Browse`***.
        - Alternatively, manually access the following URL with your browser.
            - ***`http://localhost:8080/civilizer/app/home`***
