Love Zotero. I've found it to be the best document manager of the available options. Good for research organization, casual reading, highlighting, annotations, and so on.<p>Just want to thank the devs for sharing it with the world :)
It's funny how on the desktop, Windows has more apps and developers generally target it before MacOS. On mobile, it's the opposite where developers make apps for iOS first and release the Android version months/years later, even though Android has a 70% marketshare in mobile.
Out of curiosity what is it? Neither the store link or this one seem to explain. Is it some kind of citations tracking system? A pdf editor? I'm not sure what the features add up to in total.
Just took it for a spin. Interface looks decent. I love that I'm able to invert colors aka PDF dark mode cheat.<p>But I don't seem to be able to add annotations to a PDF and sync that back to my desktop, which is a bummer. I'm sure that will work in the future, and then I will finally be able to read and annotate papers on a tablet.<p>Okular set a high bar for what a good PDF Reader can do, this is surprisingly decent. The one killer feature which I don't anticipate any other software to implement any time soon is the "trim margins" feature of Okular, which makes pdfs so much more readable. For some.of those journals, the margins are like 30% of the width, that's some serious screen read estate, and the text is often too small already with academic papers.
Oooh, I wanted this but didn't think it would happen. And now it's here, around the same time that we can finally use their extension on Firefox for Android, too.
There's also Zoo for Zotero.<p><a href="https://github.com/mickstar/Zoo-For-Zotero">https://github.com/mickstar/Zoo-For-Zotero</a>
appreciate it's still in beta but save from browser will probably finally break my curse of 1000+ chrome tabs... (most of which are old HN threads)
Great to see this, even though the functionality is currently pretty limited. PDF download doesn't seem to work currently, even if the PDF is available via e.g. arxiv. Going to keep an eye on the development.
If I mostly want to keep my own document repository (pdf, word, etc) with search ability over all included documents and, maybe, the ability to do notations, is this the right tool? If not, any suggestions?
Oh nice Christmas present. I am using devonthink at the moment but would love to have a look at something else how does zotero hold up with big libraries?
