iBooks Highlights export app

I have the practice of compiling personal books summaries after finishing reading any practical book and storing them in a Mind Map format. This helped me to actually understand details better and to refresh knowledge by revisiting the mind maps after I felt I forgot something.

Though process of assembling those Mind Maps was time-consuming: I had to develop Mind Map in separate app, copy paste or type in case I was reading analog book, so over the time I switched to copying highlights from iBooks and then even tweaked some script I found at GitHub for exporting all the highlights directly to Mind Map format.

That script cut the time down at least for 70%. So today I'm starting with designing a separate app for iBooks highlights export as a little pet project. Hope that will be able to share it soon.
