Tags research

Knowledge base originally made for improving QuoMediaView, rewritten for public access. Goals are to provide useful information for developers able to implement tags and establish a new standard/specification that allows for file tagging on every major platform (or at least unify the Linux ones).

Resources

Tags Overview - Markdown file with an explanation of tagging systems in comparison with traditional folder based approach. Best for beginners.

Tags Research - Markdown file with a collection of links and notes about general file tagging and all specification attempts from the past. More tailored for developers or users that are already using file tags.

Glossary - Markdown file with descriptions of features on single program pages.

Software List - Markdown file with a categorized collection of software that specialize in tagging. Previously available in main readme.md file, but moved for better clarity.

Program Template - Template for new programs that deal with files.

Program Template nonfiles - Template for new programs that don't deal with actual files. For example a to-do notes app or bookmark manager.

Fully completed entries:

Research: Tags Overview, Tags Research, Glossary, Program Template, Software List, Program Template nonfiles

Programs: QuoMediaView, Kanri, TagStudio

Programs fact checked by developers: QuoMediaView, Kanri

Suggestions for more appropriate license welcome. Main goal is to have it available for others to copy and use it in other projects (including paid ones) - for example if somebody wants to convert it into something like Gitbook documentation then there should be no problems.
