This app, like every app, stands on the shoulder of giants. Hundreds of years of human scholarliness culminate in this piece of software. Also, the Internet, electricity, movable type – thanks for all this, humanity!

There are a couple of people we want to highlight because of their impact on the way we work:

Niklas Luhmann, for reviving the Zettelkasten method in recent history.
Zachary Schneirov, creator of Notational Velocity http://notational.net, for the “nv core” user experience.
Brett Terpstra & David Halter, maintainers of nvALT https://github.com/ttscoff/nv, for the app that we all used since 2010.
All the contributors of Open Source Software who helped realize this app without even knowing. Seriously, it’s a miracle. Have a look at the “About” window for a list of these.

Enjoy the app, dear user, and say hi on https://zettelkasten.de/forum some day and tell us about your journey.
