💾 Kindle Highlight CLI tool


# Problem

Many people who do their reading on Kindle e-readers often highlight parts of the text and also take notes. I wanted a way of sorting these highlights into files of individual books.

# Solution

I made a simple Command Line Interface (CLI) tool using Node.js and the Commander library to parse commands. The tool takes in the kindle highlights file, typically named My Clippings.txt and found in the /Documents folder of the Kindle, and returns a folder of books in Markdown files.

The tool can also be used to get (a) random highlight(s) from the terminal.
