Personal Knowledge Management System

A comprehensive system for managing personal knowledge that goes beyond simple note-taking to create an interconnected web of ideas, insights, and discoveries.

The Problem

Traditional note-taking apps treat information as isolated documents. But knowledge isn't hierarchical—it's networked. Ideas connect across domains, insights build on previous insights, and the most valuable discoveries often happen at the intersection of different areas of thinking.

The Solution

This system uses a graph database to model knowledge as a network of interconnected concepts, allowing for:

• Bidirectional linking: Every connection works both ways
• Contextual discovery: Find related ideas you might not have considered
• Temporal tracking: See how your thinking evolves over time
• AI-powered insights: Surface patterns and connections automatically

Technical Architecture

The backend uses FastAPI and Neo4j to provide a flexible, scalable foundation. The frontend is built with React and TypeScript, offering an intuitive interface for exploring and manipulating the knowledge graph.

Key features include real-time collaboration, version control for ideas, and powerful querying capabilities that let you ask questions like "What ideas have I been thinking about that relate to both systems thinking and software architecture?"
