Title: Hi HN! There&#x27;s been lots of note-taking &#x2F; personal knowledge tools developed in the past few years. But there&#x27;s a big difference between working with people you already know and collaborating with anyone on the internet.<p>Right now, if you&#x27;re interested in, say DIY air purifiers[1], you could throw up a document or webpage. But there&#x27;s no good way for people you don&#x27;t already know to work on it, to make it their own. If you&#x27;re writing software, the answer is obvious: publish a Git repository on GitHub&#x2F;GitLab.<p>With Encycla, we&#x27;re building a sort of &quot;GitHub for knowledge&quot;: a place where you can create simple, topical webpages that others can fork and asynchronously push &amp; pull changes from (without knowing about Git or anything technical).<p>On the backend, every page on Encycla is a git repository containing Markdown that you can clone, edit independently of the Encycla website, push to other services (such as GitHub, GitLab), etc.<p>For instance, here&#x27;s a page on Encycla:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;encycla.com&#x2F;KF94" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;encycla.com&#x2F;KF94</a><p>and the underlying git repository pushed to GitHub:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;philipn&#x2F;KF94" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;philipn&#x2F;KF94</a><p>1. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;encycla.com&#x2F;Corsi-Rosenthal_Cube" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;encycla.com&#x2F;Corsi-Rosenthal_Cube</a>
