This is a simple webapp for extracting rich content from a journal stored as a text file in the following format:

2000-1-1
This is an example of the formatting of the journal.

2000-1-2
Each entry is simply a date header on its own line in the form of YYYY-MM-DD.
Anything after a date header but before the next one (or the end of the file) is the body of the entry.

2000-1-3
The application supports plugins written in Python.
One plugin included as an example can link journal entries together by identifying dates within the contents of entries.

The first entry of this journal occurred on 2000-1-1.

Yesterday and tomorrow are also dates.
