Project Ideas / TODO

• A richer UI
  • Preview given for each entry when browsing the list of entries
  • Organise each diary entry by month
• Implement searching, sorting & filtering of entries
• Each post can have tags associated with it
• NLP analyses could be taken for each month/year to give a summary of the time period, such as the sentiment score, frequent words etc
• Integrate a git wrapper for the DB folder, so it could be both backed up and synced with GitHub
