Quiver Reviews

While text editors like Sublime and Notepad++ provide the formatting a coder needs to be efficient and notebook apps like Evernote and Quip provide an effective way to sort and manage large bits of scattered information, neither is especially well suited to the larger scale demands of computer coders. Quiver is designed to meet this need by combining the best of both worlds into a single package. Quiver sports a similar interface to many other notebook apps, implementing the sort of expanding and contracting panels and tiered folder structure that's common in organizational tools. Given how dense and inscrutable code can be, even to someone experienced in it, coders tend to understand implicitly the importance of organization when dealing with large amounts of integrated information. Users can create a limitless amount of notebooks with a limitless amount of notes in each, and these come in addition to the standard Inbox, Favorites, Recent, and Trash notebooks. You can also access all of your notes in a single interface and use the search functionality to scour through specific notebooks or your entire library. The ability to add keywords and tags to your documents makes it even easier to cross reference materials, a necessity when dealing with large quantities of code snippets, sometimes written by multiple coders across multiple languages. Folders can also be shared to increase the ease of cooperation when working on a multidiscipline project. While these may seem like rote features for a standard notebook tool, they function effectively, and they facilitate the rich layers of text editing options. Dozens of languages are supported, meaning you'll get the formatting you need for practically any piece of code you need to write. Quiver makes use of the ACE text editor, which natively supports over 120 languages and offers 20 themes for use in the program. You can also set your own indentation and outdentation preferences. The idea of a notebook that allows formatting for code is interesting in and of itself, but Quiver manages to do more through its use of cells. Each note is composed of as many cells as you'd like, and cells can house distinct programming languages, plain text, or charts and diagrams. Quiver also supports LaTex and Markdown, which can be freely used in these cells. That allows for complex notes that comprise a variety of information without the need for laborious formatting or editing on the part of the user. All of the notes in Quiver are saved as JSON files, allowing easy conversion to HTML or PDF, and a presentation mode means you can quickly adapt your notes to show off in a meeting or a classroom. The use of JSON also means you can quickly swap these notes into other tools that you regularly use. Backup and recovery of your entire library can be handled with a single click, and Quiver also provides integration with all file-based cloud services.
