> Instead of COPYING, we should do REFERRING.
I had this idea for over two years. A lot of time, I found myself copying data from one app/website to another. The problem with copying is that: you lose all context of your result.
To fix it, I thought instead of copying; we should do refering. Sadly, there is no "Ctrl/Cmd+C" for referring on any OS. As I dug deeper, I found some computer visionaries Ted Nelson also had this idea. Since 2019, PKM tools like RoamResearch, and Obsidian had some progress in making a personal knowledge base with links, but no one has bought the idea of linking/referring to cross-app level.
So, ambitiously, I started building my own, and here is my vision:

Key features on my upcoming MVP:
- You can place any website on an infinite canvas
- You can refer (instead of copy) information by drag and drop
- You can navigate through apps/contents with the reference you created
- You can visually set up your daily routine (sequence of using many functional apps)
