Preamble

• Joplin is a free and open-source note-taking tool that allows you to organize all your notes within folders and access them from any device (computer, mobile device, etc.)
• Joplin will store several of its configuration files, so to avoid cluttering your kDrive directories, it is recommended to create a dedicated folder in your personal directory on kDrive, with a simple folder name like "joplin" for example, and then specify it at the end of the WebDAV link in point 7 below:
  
• The various services offered by Infomaniak are all compatible with the corresponding standard protocols (CalDAV/CardDAV for contacts & calendars for example), therefore if you encounter a problem with third-party software, contact its publisher or a Partner and consult the support policy as well as article 11.9 of the Infomaniak TOS.
