Is there a website that turns DOIs and ISBNs into BibLaTeX entries?
I use JabRef for managing references, which allows you to generate entries via a DOI and saves to a local .bib file.

Zotero- ree, easy-to-use tool to collect, organize, cite, and share research
If the town is "online reference managers," you are probably right, but I would argue that reference managers are one of those areas where you really want something offline:
- Offline ensures that you do not suffer an externally caused downtime just before a deadline
- Offline ensures that you have a path for keeping your database throughout your research career, and to do system updates when _you_ want to.
- Offline ensures that if you leave academia, you will always have access to local copies of the academic papers you have referenced.
My favorite offline/local reference manager is `jabRef` [0] which stores all metadata directly in a bibtex-file. The GUI has an excellent pdf-integration, and everything is local and super fast.
Case in point: after a decade in industry, I am looking to get back into my academic fief. All the papers I ever read are in my Dropbox, and all I had to do to pick up where I left was download a current version jabRef and point it to my database which it read without any issues.

I used JabRef throughout my work. It's indeed too late for my PhD work, but Zotero does indeed look very nice.

Maybe a niche question, but is anyone aware of any way to setup a database for citations? I'd like to be able to input citation information, copy the citation, and keep that citation data saved somewhere so I can pull it out again later, preferably in whatever style I need for that moment
I found this app called papis that seems like it would do what I want, but there doesn't appear to be a way to self host it.

Introducing papis.nvim: Manage your bibliography with Neovim
I've recently published a first version of papis.nvim, a neovim companion plugin for the bibliography and reference manager papis. It's mainly meant for people who use neovim for academic and other prose writing. With it, you can search your bibliography, edit entries, open files and notes, format notes, and more! Check it out if you're already using papis, or if you're using mendeley or zotero and have been hoping for a nice cli + neovim alternative.

coBib 3.2 Released - The console Bibliography for power users!
A final word on the comparison with papis. The major difference is the library/database structure: papis used a deeply nested library structure. Paper information gets stored in multiple info.yaml files whereas coBib was designed to use a single, centralized and plain-text (version-controlled) database file (YAML format). PDF files can be linked via paths pointing to anywhere on your filesystem (or remote URLs) which was important to me because during my studies I kept papers for various courses separate from each other.
