Provide a list of columns instead of a bunch of random arguments

A new app for tracking your thoughts on content consumed. Books, TV shows, movies, albums

Need to brainstorm a better name for the app than "reviews"

Use single table inheritance (Review -> BookReview, MovieReview, TVShowReview, etc)

• Choose from a predefined set of themes
• Create your own

Need to decide what to use. Obviously I'm not a designer so building my own CSS library (or just designing from scratch) is not super feasible. Main possibilities are:

• Foundation

Create, Edit, Delete at the top (somewhere in the navbar) and pagination at the bottom.

IE, if creating a note against a project, offer to link the note to any contacts or companies specified in the project settings. This isn't "machine learning" or some bullshit. This is just writing stuff that is clever and helpful.

Dashwork should have a calculator.

That is all.

Button + keyboard shortcut that brings up a Spotlight-like prompt to try and search for stuff.

Or perhaps 'Wiki'?

See this blog post:

It might be interesting for handling our polymorphic routing better.

Does rails ujs support something like sweet alert? Can we provide our own alert and confirm functions?

Google Maps or mapbox??

I'm pretty sure there's a gem that does this...

Some boring tidyup work I need to do at some point

Beautiful

• Good design
• Friendly to screen readers
• Friendly to colour blind users
• Sleek

Difficult to break, self healing

• Never allow me to delete important information
• Soft delete items
• Employ validation

Reliable

• Run on good virtual machines
• CDN host for assets
• Multiple servers, load balanced
• Read from replica databases and write to primary

Flexible

• Everything can link to everything else
• Easily find anything
• Easily contextualize information

Write questions and answers (text answers or multi choice). Associate questions with topics. Show random questions.

Should be free for my use case

Use markdown as often as possible:

• Notes
• Description fields
• User information

Allow users to put shortcuts to common actions on their home screen. This could include

• Creating various items (personal log entry, project, contact)
• Going to starred items
• Going to particular tags
• Filling out common forms

All links between entities within the application should be hover-able, revealing more information. For instance, hovering over a contact, should show basically a business card..

Allow it to be permanently activated or observe the system setting by default.

Press / to bring up a prompt that allows you to say "create note" or "add task against project due tomorrow"
