   One of the best Digital Asset Management platform

   Eagle is one of the best Digital Asset Management platforms I have come across. Being a designer we have to manage ton of images and files day to day, using subfolders may lead to a stressful situation. With Eagle, everything is a lot easier, its interface is intuitive I get to use tags, annotations and categorizing functions to organize all my digital assets all in one place. The added browser extension works flawlessly and makes it easier to manage and save new assets. Also, the pricing is affordable with great value.
   Highly recommend it to anyone who wants to have your digital assets well organized!

   🏁 Competitors: Eagle, digiKam, Adobe Bridge

   👍 Pros:    Digital asset management|Great user experience|Easy to use|Beautiful search experience|Support lots of format|Desktop browser extension|Regular updates|Great value for the money|Cheap price

   👎 Cons:    No mobile version|None so far

• Ask HN: How are you tracking tools / products to try out later?

  For several years now, while reading HN and Xitter every day, I've been collecting lots of tools, projects and technical blog posts to "try out later". Most of them are never used, or stop being developed. But quite a few end up resurfacing, or being useful for new projects I start. What do you use to keep track of tools / products you want to try out later? Or for keeping a library of "state of the art" to try at... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Using accesskey attribute in HTML forms and links (1998)

  On that note, I think the best app I've seen for button hotkey observability is Eagle (https://eagle.cool) (ironically built in Electron), which uses a simple setup of unobtrusive tooltips that give a label for the button you hover over and whatever hotkey triggers it. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
