Read digitally without the noise

Reverie is a quiet place for your reading. Save articles and ebooks, mark the passages that matter, and keep your notes right next to the text. Everything you write exports to plain markdown files you own.

Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. Highlight NoteYou have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.

On trust

Applies to reading too. Trust the slow parts.

What it does

Articles and ebooks in one place

Save a link and Reverie keeps a clean copy you can read offline. EPUB and Kindle books open in the same library, right where you left them.

Highlight as you read

Select any passage to mark it. Your highlights stay attached to the text, so they make sense when you come back weeks later.

Notes in the margin

Pin your thoughts beside the passage that sparked them. Drag a note to either margin and it stays put.

Tags to find things again

Label notes with your own tags as you write. Your whole collection stays searchable by whatever system makes sense to you.

Your notes, as markdown

Everything you write exports to plain markdown files, packed in a zip. Your thinking stays portable and yours.

Everything you keep is a markdown file you already own.

Same idea as the margin note
from last week. Worth keeping.
