As such the synchronisation is designed without any hard dependency to any particular service. Most of the synchronisation process is done at an abstract level and access to external services, such as OneDrive or Dropbox, is done via lightweight drivers. It is easy to support new services by creating simple drivers that provide a filesystem-like interface, i.e. the ability to read, write, delete and list items. It is also simple to switch from one service to another or to even sync to multiple services at once. Each note, notebook, tags, as well as the relation between items is transmitted as plain text files during synchronisation, which means the data can also be moved to a different application, can be easily backed up, inspected, etc. From e2d512862492d2270ea87f6f20c67b9c9b803a01 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Laurent Cozic Date: Tue, 2 Jan 2018 21:51:18 +0100 Subject: [PATCH 2/3] Update README.md More information on how to import notes into Joplin --- README.md | 7 +++++-- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index f2aab8348..b937c2576 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -76,9 +76,12 @@ On the **desktop application**, open the "File" menu, click "Import Evernote not On the **terminal application**, in [command-line mode](/terminal#command-line-mode), type `import-enex /path/to/file.enex`.

Most note-taking applications support ENEX files so it should be relatively straightforward.
