Schema - Awesome knowledge management for teams from your GDrive 🤓

Looks like a copy of workflowy. www.workflowy.com

Hey @amrith, thanks a lot for featuring us! Schema started as a vision to organise the world's knowledge. In today's fast pacing world, learning is a theme for everyone. But there are surprisingly few places that offer a comprehensive and reliable knowledge database for learning as well as the ability to easily collaborate. Among the few ones like Wikipedia, the user experience is far from optimal. Schema is our answer. It's a new way to make elegant notes and it's a community around learning. In the process of making Schema, we did extensive user study to find out what's the best way to structure information so it's easy to read and remember (i.e. optimised for learning) - that's the unique "schema" structure. We then launched the public platform for people to share their schemas and learn from others. We are really amazed by the schemas people are sharing. They range from Computer Science to Management study and you can actually learn a lot just by reading the schemas. Looking ahead, we want to build Schema into the go-to place for learning. So the next time when you want to learn anything or share anything, you'd check out Schema rather than Google or Wikipedia ;)

I believe Schema can be very helpful for making good notes that improve the study experience afterwards. In particular, I think it helps to learn faster, although studying is not the only way to use it. Any kind of notes can be taken and shared

Pros:

Design is clear and makes it very helpful to study afterwards

Cons:

No easy way of importing previous notes and no way of writting equations

I came across Schema during the freshers fair at Oxford last year. I am impressed by its simple and elegant design. I love how you can include PDFs and images on your notes and see them parallel to the notes or inline with the text. The explore note features is also really cool, you can find amazing notes using it!

Pros:

The collapsible bullet point structure is amazing! It makes my notes very easy to read and edit!

Cons:

None so far.

Just signed up @deqianjia @rango! I really like the community/notes sharing feature. Is there any way we can save a community Schema to our dashboard? I'd also love it if a folder feature could be added to organize schemas.

Is a mobile-friendly version in you product plan? ETA?

Fantastic. I've been looking for a clean, notes app with easily condensible bullets, for forever. Sure it's highly subjective but Schema has native support for the way I love to take notes: beginning with a condensed outline and expanding on topics that I have a lot to say about. I love that the note taking window is clean and empty.

My cons are wishlist features, and I'll caveat by saying I approach this as a worker, not a student. My thoughts are based on Schema as a note taking tool, not as an educational content or lesson delivery product.

Pros:

Collapsible and expandible bullets. Distraction free interface. Solid tutorial.

Cons:

No markdown. Would love to drag and drop bullets.

Thats WorkFlowy with upload option.

Excited about the new sharing feature and the possibilities it opens.

Pros:

Potential to be the Wikipedia of specialized knowledge.

Cons:

None.

It’s such a great experience using Schema. I love how all my images can be beautifully organized along with texts. Life saver! and look forward to joining the knowledge community!

Pros:

Best platform to manage images-texts, great learning community

Cons:

More features needed

Welcome to Product Hunt, @deqianjia 😸 Schema looks great! Both @helmi and I came across this from @biz's tweet 👊 Can you tell us a little more about how this app came to be?

It's as if Medium were to design a note-taking app. Pure delight.

Pros:

Super simple, learning community.

Cons:

Too simple?

This is one of the most refreshIng products I’ve seen in sometime. Can’t wait to give it a try!

Pasaré todas las notas del teléfono a Schema :)

Pros:

Minimalista

Cons:

Nada

I wanted to use it for school notes, so I took a few weeks to test it with my Physics course. It is great for growing from concepts to examples. A few pitfalls I noticed were that during export it lost the formatting inputing, and I would like to see an association with a PDF or image. As an example of that, I would like to see notes to the side of a PPT directly related to that page. So, if you export it would have slides with notes section, similar to how Microsoft has for PPT, but instead of lines it would have specific information.

This looks beautiful and quite a nice approach to Knowledge Base building and note taking.

very clean interface, too good. what is the future plan? I'm much interested to follow schema.

Sometimes select command note (backspace) doesn't work bc it will trigger the browser's Previous page so cant delete a txt row. And Ctrl-U for file upload triggers Inspect Element so sometimes using buttons is needed, I don't know when it does this exactly, seems random.

Pros:

Very clear and fast in usage. Good clear interface

Cons:

Not much storage for free and sometimes commands don't work

It's an excellent product with potential. It didn't meed my very specific needs, but I think that it can overtake Notion. As others have mentioned, the lack of Markdown support is definitely a con. Still, I'm definitely going to re-evaluate it for when I outgrow Vim+Markdown. Also, I typed feedback into chat, and @deqianjia responded, which was a very nice human touch.

The first I saw is a video popup with the message "Ouch. You are disconnected from the database. Changes will not be saved. Please refresh the page." over the close button.
