The problem wasn't the data—it was the tools to read it. But Zara was desperate
Every file was a plain text markdown note, but they were riddled with custom tags, embedded queries, and live templates that only worked on one specific, ancient version of a note-taking app. When a new engineer, Zara, joined the team, she couldn't open half the critical files.
