A tool to find information from PDF and PowerPoint-files

I wanted to find information more effeciently from pdf & ppt files. I decided to make an app for it.

The program was created with React and Electron with some Java on the side. A java program pulls the text data from pdf & ppt files and creates a json from the data. It also splits said files to singular pages as images. The app calls this java program to target user defined folders, and then matches up the split pages and text data from the json. This allows the program to filter pages by text content.

Features:

• Browse any amount of pdf and ppt files on the same UI
• Filter pages by text content

It was a fun experience to create a desktop app with web technologies.
