Note Maps
Note Maps is a personal knowledge base intended for use on mobile devices. Notes are structured a bit like the contents of a dictionary, or the index at the back of a book.
Each note map is a collection of information about a set of topics. Any topic can be described with a set of names, types, and miscellaneous notes that may include definitions, timestamps, or links to images, videos, etc. Topics may be connected to each other through associations, and any association may itself be described as another topic. Even the role played by a topic in an association can, itself, be described as a topic.
This model is isomorphic to the Topic Maps Data Model defined in ISO/IEC 13250-2:2006. With Note Maps, it will be possible to for topic maps to be imported from or exported to standard data formats including XTM (ISO/IEC 13250-3:2013) and JTM (JTM 1.1).
A handful of mostly independent implementations are mixed together in this repository. Each focuses on different parts of the problem.
Mobile App
The mobile app is a Flutter front end with a UI focused on entering and organizing notes. Notes are stored through a Go backend in a Badger database on local storage, where they can be included in system backups.

./kv./note-maps./tmaps

Roadmap to v0.1
- Partial Go implementation of deserialization from CTM
- Partial Go implementation of data storage for topic maps
- Flutter native channel for communication with data storage
- Minimal Flutter front-end that uses native channel to communicate with Go
- Minimal UX research, recorded in this repository at docs/ux.md
- Wireframe Flutter front-end with navigation
- Topic maps can be created
- Names can be created and edited
- Notes can be created and edited
- Topics added to a topic map can be reviewed
- Deletion of topic maps works correctly in the UI
- Adding, editing, and deleting names and notes works consistently
- UI includes warnings about data storage, especially deletion
Roadmap to v0.2
- Associations and roles can be entered
- Associations involving a topic can be found from the topic page
- Browsing a topic map supports viewing all data entered in that topic map
Roadmap beyond
- Topic maps can be exported and imported
- Data entry is reasonably easy
