Collektor

A meta-collection manager

Purpose

The idea is to be able to keep track of abitrary collections.

Concepts

Roots

Roots are the primary collection type.

Branches

Branches are sub-types or categories within a root.

Leaves

Leaves are individual collection items. Leaves have properties, which have a name and a value. These properties are easier to search than regular text, and are intended to be flexible enough to enable creating a custom type, to simplify future input.

Example

Roots and branches:

  • Media (root)
    • Music (branch)
      • CDs (branch)
      • Cassettes (branch)
    • Movies (branch)
  • Photography (root)
    • Cameras (branch)
    • Lenses (branch)

A leaf (on Cassettes branch)

  • Genres: Soundtrack, Lo-fi
  • Notes: Bundled with the Planet X3 DOS game
