Taguette

Using your computer for work is no longer something unusual, and this translates in having a wide range of specialized software at your disposal. Taguette is one of the utilities that is especially created to simplify research.

It needs to be mentioned from the beginning that Taguette can be installed on your own server or locally (it runs in your default browser). The first option comes in handy when you want to share your work with other colleagues, whereas the second one should be used when you are the only person currently working on a project.

Speaking of projects, you need to start by creating one and assigning it a relevant name, then you can explore the GUI of Taguette, along with the neatly organized side sections. At any point in your work, you can export the current project to XML, Excel, CSV, HTML, DOCX or PDF.

When you want to add a document, you can choose between several formats, such as PDF, TXT, DOCX, HTML, EPUB, MOBI, RTF or ODT.

You can preview the contents of each file, then highlight the paragraphs, sentences or phrases of interest, just like you would use colored highlighters on your papers. The only difference is that you cannot use different colors, yet you can hover over each marked region and view the associated tags, or activate the backlight to make the tags easier to spot.

You can use the same tags throughout multiple files, then analyze the tags list, edit items or merge them.

To wrap it up, Taguette can truly come in handy to all those who work with hefty bibliographies and need to keep their data very well organized. Little to no effort needs to be invested in operating this app, so it is suitable for novices, as well as experts.
