Hello sword developers,
My name is Tobias Klein. I'm a Christian and software developer based in
Mannheim, Germany.
I've just published a new release of Ezra Project (version 0.7.1) on Github:
https://github.com/tobias-klein/ezra-project/releases/tag/0.7.1
Feature overview in a video tutorial:

I've been starting to work on this software about 9 years ago, at that
time it was web-based. I figured that the web-based approach
(server-based) was not super useful for end users, so last year I turned
the software into a Desktop app (still the same javascript-based
frontend, but based on Electron) and this is what I'm releasing now.
This version comes with a very basic feature: Topic-based verse tagging.
The general idea behind Ezra Project is to have a bible software that
allows the user to store self-created study material right with the
bible text.
The tagging feature is what I use myself extensively for topical study
to prepare sermons, home bible studies, etc. I found it very valuable to
maintain my own "topical index".
In my web-based version of Ezra Project I have some more features that I
may migrate to this desktop application one feature at a time in the
future. Planned features are:
* Export of tagged verses to text document
* In-book search
* Cross-bible search with possibility to tag within search results
Some technical infos:
* Ezra Project uses a C++ library that wraps the Sword interface
behind an Electron-compatible interface:
https://github.com/tobias-klein/ezra-sword-interface
* Ezra Project currently runs on Windows (tested on Windows 10) and on
Linux (64 bit, tested on Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS).
I'd be happy about any feedback regarding Ezra Project. Since I just
published it there are not any users, yet. I thought it may be good to
start with you guys here ... :)
Greetings from Mannheim, Germany
Tobias
