Hi everyone I was thinking of creating a backend module that has functione for a note taking(search, sort, etc). So anyone can implement a ui on top of it.

I have some basic understanding of rust (made a just-working chip-8 emulator). But I’ve never used SQL or other database.

Is this plausible? Is there a similar project that I can use as reference? What are the mistakes I should avoid?

    You can just use the filesystem and markdown files. That is a common way for applications to store note type data locally. This is what tools like Obsidian do and has the advantage of being easy to get the notes out if you want to use a different tool.
