I haven't had the time/resources to try to fork it and see if that assessment makes sense – it does, I think (1) could be a Mac/iOS SDK, since the other Mac SDK offering is abandoned, best I can tell. Both the OneNote and Evernote come with their own web clipper extension. A menu will fly out from the right and provide several options, from changing the notebook (all notes go in a notebook on Evernote) to inserting arrows or highlights or annotations (all the things. (1) could be init'd with an OAuth token from (2) or obtained directly. Screenshot Clipper Tool: In addition to the web clipper Chrome. You can then re-open that '.enex' file as needed when creating new notes as copies of the exported note. The later could optionally be used only if needed in the main app bundle. Evernote Templates: To make an Evernote 'template,' create a note that you wish to use multiple times, then navigate to File -> Export Note. It looks like this SDK could be abstracted into two parts - (1) a cross-platform integration piece which handled the Evernote note integration calls, and (2) a helper to make authentication on iOS easier. Short of a direct API without all the overhead, I'm not sure what I can integrate that will work in frameworks across iOS and Mac. My OAuth tier works fine with the Evernote OAuth endpoints. Evernote gives you the ability to view all notes and documents based on the tags. The new Drafts is architected in cross-platform frameworks, and if I continue to support Evernote, there's no clear path to do it for me. These are attributes that you attach to an individual note that you create. Maybe I'm missing it, but all the thrift overhead seem to make it prohibitive to integrate without using one of the SDKs and doing so does not seem to be supported or documented. Ultimately, I would prefer just to do my own integration directly with a REST API because I have my own OAuth layer, etc., but Evernote doesn't seem to offer a straight-forward direct REST/JSON type API. I've been updating the app with a lot more flexibility. I'm the developer of Drafts ( ), a popular automation app on iOS.
