Sioyek: a PDF viewer optimized for reading research papers and textbooks. https://github.com/ahrm/sioyek
It has a lot of niche features, but my favorite is the ability to preview or jump to references even when they are not linked in the PDF file.

SumatraPDF Reader
I implore all developers of PDF readers to implement sioyek's overview feature[0]. When you hover on a cross-referenced entry, it opens a little preview window with the contents of the reference. It is an absolute game-changer for reading textbooks and technical papers; I cannot overstate its utility.

- Vimtex: sioyek is not executable. Any idea how to solve this. I'm on wsl2 Ubuntu.

Sioyek PDF Viewer on Asahi Linux
Has anyone been able to run the sioyek PDF viewer (https://github.com/ahrm/sioyek) on Asahi? I've tinkered around a little, but the max I've gotten to is a black window with the executable complaining about an inability to compile certain shaders. Would this be due to the current OpenGL in mesa-asahi-edge (and thus can't be solved until we get more recent OpenGL version support) or is there some way to finagle around this?

PDF Viewer that Compiles LaTeX Notes?
Maybe chat to the dev of https://github.com/ahrm/sioyek about adding this as a feature. It's probably the closest pdf viewer I can think of that might do something like this in the future.
- What software would you like to see ported?
- Good PDF reader/annotation for research

Simple Lasts Longer
This is the approach I use in most of my hobby projects. It's simpler, and faster and there are no loading screens.
In my kindle-clippings-manager (https://github.com/karlosos/kindle_clippings_webapp) I import highlights from Kindle and store them in localStorage. The major drawback is a size limitation (10MB). This should not be a problem in most cases but if you need to store more data then indexedDB (Web Storage) can solve the issue.
Linear (https://linear.app/) uses its sync engine to store the data in Web Storage. With optimistic updates, it feels like an offline app. You can read more about the sync engine here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36519448
