# spent a good bit of time playing with lil and reviewing the docs. I am now
# totally smitten and excited to use lil.
# a basic sketch of the data table at the center of the action
# catalogue.entry_type
# catalogue.parent # not 100% certain how to reference another entry by id
# catalogue.title
# catalogue.body
# catalogue.reference
# catalogue.created_date
# catalogue.updated_date # does this matter? (sorta leaning towards "no")
# entry_type's
# - link
# - note
# - folder
# every item can have 1 parent
# a parent is usually a folder
# data table wrapped in an interactive cli for adding, querying, and viewing
# input data. Input data stored as CSV between sessions
# NOTE: if input data is stored as CSV is becomes trivial to pipe in and out
# of SQLite in the future...if that'd be desirable
# NOTE: I'm using just 1 table so that this can be easily exported as CSV...
# if it weren't for that requirement, I'd have multiple tables
