I just tried it. I felt like a mouse bumping on walls to understand what it does and how. Not to sound mean, but just to signal that a lot more work and rethinking needs to be done, to make this intuitive to the user.

> "Create your own schemas for whatever topic you can imagine and start a continuous learning repository. In here you can add any number of entries and store your private notes to stay up-to-date with your learning moments."

I think this sounds too complicated. The average user might not know the terms "schemas" or "repository". Also, this should be your bold text: Organized Note taking app, not "Continuous learning" that's too broad.

Good luck with it.

Thanks for trying and for your honest feedback! I find it quite hard to translate something I find incredibly useful to something that might be useful for others, and then make it intuitive to use. I'll have to work harder improving that.

I added a clip to the homepage to show how I designed it to work, I hope that helps a little.

I made Fooder because I needed to keep track of things I learned when cooking a recipe. Still quite early in the development, but hoping to get some feedback. Not mobile friendly yet I'm afraid.
