# Kindle notes parser
Take your kindle notes in txt format and output a file per book.
Ideal for second brains or walled gardens.
## Why this?
I usually take notes in my kindle but I don't end up doing anything with them.
As I'm learning rust I wanted to practice on a simple need (language and a bit of UI).
My workflow is like this now:
1. Read a book and add highlights
1. **Cut** the notes from the kindle and paste them in the Downloads folder
1. Use this software to split the books and remove empty or repeated lines.
1. Copy to my [obsidian](https://obsidian.md/) folder
1. Clean and create [flashcards](https://github.com/st3v3nmw/obsidian-spaced-repetition/wiki/Decks)
## Usage
### CLI
```bash
cargo run -p kindle-notes-cli
```
### GUI
```bash
cargo run -p kindle-notes-gui
```
## Design
We are using cargo workspaces. There are 3 workspaces:
- `kindle-notes-core`: contains the main logic
- `kindle-notes-cli`: contains the cli for the terminal app
- `kindle-notes-gui`: contains the gui for the desktop environment
