Overview

Liongard's Notes allow users to add human intelligence to automated documentation. Notes are short text snippets that can be added to an Environment or a System in Liongard.

Notes can be tagged to timeline entries to provide you and your team human-insight, and Notes can be pinned to an Environment or a System's home screen so they are displayed prominently for you and your team to access the most relevant information.
