# Joplin

Joplin is a note taking and todo application, which can handle a large number of notes organised into notebooks. The notes are searchable, can be copied, tagged and modified with your own text editor. The Android application supports markdown rendering.

The notes can be synchronised with various targets including the file system (for example with a network directory) or with Microsoft OneDrive. When synchronising the notes, notebooks, tags and other metadata are saved to plain text files which can be easily inspected, backed up and moved around.

Notes exported from Evenotes via .enex files can be imported into Joplin, including the formatted content (which is converted to markdown), resources (images, attachments, etc.) and complete metadata (geolocation, updated time, created time, etc.).

# Install

# Localisation

The applications are currently available in English and French. If you would like to contribute a translation it is quite straightforward, please follow these steps:

- Download Poedit, the translation editor, and install it: https://poedit.net/
- Download the file to be translated: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/laurent22/joplin/master/CliClient/locales/joplin.pot
- In Poedit, open this .pot file, go into the Catalog menu and click Configuration. Change "Country" and "Language" to your own country and language.
- From then you can translate the file. Once it's done, please send the file to [this address](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/laurent22/joplin/master/Assets/Adresse.png).
