What is XartNote?
------------------

XartNote is an open source diary, note and journal tool. Written by php, fully compatible with linux and windows (other platforms are available, but not tested), without database required.
Support rich text format, support images, support tags, support multi-language, support template.

****** The data is the most important ******
All data files be stored separately by the '.html' format rather than a proprietary file format or compressed single file.
If you stop using XartNote a long time, When you find the archive log or notebook at many years ago, you do not have to worry about the compatibility of the software version, you do not have to worry about the compatibility of the operating system, you do not even remember the name of the XartNote, you can still read all of your data files using any web browser, without the need to install any other software.

Why i write XartNote?
----------------------

I often record some working log, diary and take the other note. My requirements include:
 * free, it is best to open source software
 * it must be compatible with the system (in the company, I had to use linux and windows)
 * open file format, I can be anywhere at any time to view the file, rather than having to install software.
 * log function, I can easily view any period of time, I have added or edited document.
 * must support insert pictures (I often take pictures and capture)
 * must be able to grab the web page, to copy any part of the web page, paste to maintain the original format and pictures.
	I often written the note and email to myself, sometimes, to contain multiple pictures, i need  to easily save it to my local directory.
 * mainly file organization is based on the tags, rather than the organization of the hierarchical tree.
	I often do not exact know a file should be stored in which directory, use the tags, I can add any number of tags, and do not worry about where the files is stored, i can easy find it in future.

I used a lot of similar software, like **note, **blog, **wiki, including the desktop program version and web version. Most of them are very good software, but no one can be completely in line with my work habits, so I decided to write one myself.
