Intro: In 2019 When I was studying data science I used evernote,google colab, notion and google sheets a lot. But it seems like a very hard task to keep switching between all of them. Despite, NOTION provides all in one app, it was not really able to replace spreadsheets or execute simple python or javascript code. However, I started thinking about building my own app just for fun. And it was very difficult, especially executing code with javascript. Until I found out about RUST and WASM in 2020 and its great ability which in fact feels like superpowers, I had the idea of creating autodox from scratch with rust and use it for production.
In addition, many students love to use anki and quizlet that are great websites, but there are two things students hate about these websites. Firstly, they don’t like the idea of using many applications at the same time. For example, you are already using google colab and google sheet and now U have anki and quizlet. Also, people like to tag their flashcards in their code as well. For example, if you are taking notes and flashcards as well, sometimes you will need to link a flash card to a note or a word in a note to a flash card which will save lots of time.
In summary, I decided to build an app called AUTODOX with a very specific goal which is saving your time. Autodox saves your time because it is actually all in one app and that is not just a claim in which we will have plugins which will be the superpower of autodox, so you can manage your tasks, write code and notes. Also, you can have your own mini apps with our spreadsheets system in which we will have all the google sheets formulas in addition to the ability to implement external APIS. For example, you can use google translate API for your flashcards spreadsheet if you want to learn spanish. All of that in addition to the ability to view your spreadsheet data in the form of flash cards, gallery or todo lists or whatever, You can install custom plugins for more views and finally you will have privcity because your data will be stored in the block-chain without losing the search functionality because notion was not able to encrypt data because if they encrypted the data U wont be able to search them.
