As I continued to use it, I realized that just copying my annotations to my website via micropub wasn't enough for me to truly integrate it into my workflow. + +I'm big on learning in public and I keep a [digital garden/wiki](https://wiki.jamesravey.me/) containing slightly more fully-formed stuff. However, I keep my private and personal notes as well as half-baked, hare-brained ideas in [Joplin](https://joplinapp.org/). I was thinking it would be very useful to have my hypothes.is annotations easily-accessible from within Joplin, but I struggled to find an off-the-shelf solution to making this happen. + +So I decided to take matters into my own hands and build a Joplin plugin that allows users to pull their hypothes.is annotations into their local notes database. I'm excited to announce the [alpha release of this plugin](https://github.com/ravenscroftj/joplin-hypothesis/releases/tag/v0.0.1), which is already proving to be a valuable tool for me. + +With this plugin, folks can automatically sync their annotations and tags into new notes in Joplin. This allows them to create a local copy of their annotation data. This allows users to more easily integrate hypothes.is into their existing Joplin knowledge management workflow. Having my annotations (or `literature notes`) in the same place as my permanent notes makes my workflow a little bit easier. Of course it also means that you have a copy of your annotations should hypothes.is go down or if you're working offline. + +The plugin is open source and MIT-licensed. You are welcome (and encouraged) to contribute by providing feedback or even code to help improve it even further. It's still in alpha and there are a couple of bugs, but it's already proving to be a valuable tool for me and it might help you out too. \ No newline at end of file
