Zotero is one of the "big four" apps of my life (alongside VSCode, Obsidian and a web browser) -- I use it as a reference manager (via BetterBibTeX) plus a library (via Zotmoov).

One thing I really disliked is all the point-and-click one has to do in Zotero, because all the category structure is stored within the app itself (i.e. in a database, rather than in the trivial way on the filesystem).

`pramaana` is to Zotero what `pass` is to Bitwarden.

A simple CLI tool for managing references and full texts in a folder on your filesystem.
