Many years ago, I heard a Tim Ferris podcast with Robert Rodriguez is an avid journaler and used a bunch of Word documents to organize his daily notes. Ever since then, I couldn't get my mind off of a personal journaling system primarily organized by day; with a secondary topical organization by Label. After a few false starts of my own and wasting about $10K on an off-shore development company, I was still left with nothing. Recently, I decided to give it one more push and developed the first draft of my dream journaling tool. I'm a developer, I want to also be a writer. Development comes much easier to me than writing.

This is an Angular app deployed into Firebase. This was my first time using Firebase. I never published an app in public before because I don't feel like I know enough about security. Firebase took all of the thinking out of it (I hope).

If interested, see https://journal-ease.com. I only have Google login because I need it to properly secure the app and FireStore. Also, I promise to send only the occasional development status emails for the foreseeable future.

Still ugly and have a long ways to go, but I wanted to share this to see what people think. (Note if document comes up blank, hit refresh :\ .
