Note Maps aims to become a personal knowledge base that can be used on smartphones and laptops.
Each note map is a collection of information about a set of topics. Any topic can be described with a set of names, types, and miscellaneous notes that may include definitions, timestamps, or links to images, videos, etc. Topics may be connected to each other through associations, and any association may itself be described as another topic. Even the role played by a topic in an association can, itself, be described as a topic.
This model is isomorphic to the Topic Maps Data Model defined in ISO/IEC 13250-2:2006. Note Maps may some day be able to import from or export to standard Topic Map data formats like XTM (ISO/IEC 13250-3:2013) and JTM (JTM 1.1).
Status: Exploratory. Note Maps is in an experimental stage and is not yet useful for taking notes. Many design and implementation options are being explored.

git fetch third_party/zefyr
git subtree add --prefix third_party/zefyr third_party/zefyr master --squash
How to update a subtree:
git fetch third_party/zefyr master
git subtree pull --prefix third_party/zefyr third_party/zefyr master --squash
