Look, this will make the git history look funny, but trimming unnecessary depth from the source tree is a very necessary sanity-preserving measure when dealing with a super-modularized codebase like this one. While it makes the project configuration a bit less conventional, it will save you several clicks every time you jump between modules. Which you'll do a lot, because it's *modul*ar. The src/main/java convention makes a lot of sense for a non-modular project though. This ain't that.

Memex is a hypertext engine, backed by gemtext and git. It's files all the way down. All files are readable as well as writable by both human and machine.<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
You are looking at Memex now, either through HTTP or Gemini, or possibly over telnet. It has as many ways to access, as well as several uses.<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
It's a personal information manager, a wiki, a weblog; all these things and none of them.<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
The aim is to create something that retains the power of a simple file system abstraction, while also providing the strengths of interconnected hypertext while avoiding some of its problems, especially dead links.<br>

<h2 id="1.1">Name</h2>
|

<br>
|
|
It's named after Vannevar Bush's hypothetical invention in the 1945 essay "As we may think". <br>

<blockquote>
|
|
This is the essential feature of the memex. The process of tying two items together is the important part.</blockquote>
|
|
<br>
|
|
This is true for both his memex, and my memex.<br>
