Sidenote - Timestamped notes on YouTube videos

by

I created Sidenote for myself, to write summaries of conference talks and content-rich videos, so I could easily jump back to the moment of the video that’s referred in my notes. Sidenote is free to use, you can browse others' notes and create your own!

Hello, It looks interesting when you do it for yourself, it's probably the best effort. Develop, I believe that the education market is growing quite steeply.

Wow, this is nice, any way to include the comments AND the relative videos or articles? Also, is it open source? What's the tech behind?

@0xval Technically yes, I could include the YouTube comments via their API, but generally the comment section doesn't have a lot of good quality content, so I'm keeping that out for now. As for related videos, I could also add them too, but then there would be no guarantee that those related videos also have notes, so not sure that would be a good user experience. Now about the tech stack, it's Node.js + Express + Angular + MongoDB, and it's closed source.
