#2Seems interesting and something I need. But it is available only for Mac?
Re: Quiver – The Programmer's Notebook
#3I like Quiver, use it every day, but it's development has kind of stalled/stopped for a couple of years, and it has some significant limitations. It's search capability is limited, and it can't do search and replace. At all. In any form. I had never seen a text handling program that couldn't replace text, but Quiver now has this distinction. If you need to do this, you have to open up Quiver's JSON in an actual text editor.

#4the quiver dev(s) decided that converting characters/integers to emojis and adding bizarre hidden characters was a good idea for some reason? i spent an hour tracking down why the messages i was submitting to a queue weren't working and it ended up being the fact that i saved it in quiver. try snippetslab instead.

Yes, which is ironic because the app is packaged using Electron, which is supposed to be cross-platform.
The developers should have developed this app using native libraries instead to offer a good performance.

#6Too bad it's Mac-only, it would not fly well with collaboration.
Would love to have a similar UI but self-hosted alternative.

#8Wouldn't a customizable version of http://devdocs.io/ have been a better sell?

#9Is this an Electron app? If so, can it be ported to Windows and Linux?
Re: Quiver – The Programmer's Notebook
#10Since Quiver is only usable on Apple platforms, I've instead started using Boostnote. It doesn't quite have the same featureset, but it's still a great way of collecting formatted notes and storing them on Dropbox/GDrive.
