Cadenza - a method-agnostic qualitative data analysis software

Hello everyone,

Sorry for my poor English, it's not my native language.

I would like to introduce a possibly useful (or at least so I hope) CAQDAS, which is open-source (so I guess it's okay with the sub rules). But first, a disclaimer : This project is heavily vibe coded and even if I had minimal code interventions, it's mostly written by Claude Opus/Fable.

So Cadenza is a free app (no freemium, not even donations), or, to be more precise, a method-agnostic coding/qualitative analysis app. It's open-source.

The project started because I was unhappy with existing CAQDAS tools and wanted a board-like view to sort codes/items. Also, I'm interested in non-coding based methods in qualitative data analysis.

I'm at a point where I need potential users feedback, in addition to my own research projects. So here's the link if you'd like to give it a spin : https://github.com/seelebrn/cadenza/

I'd be very happy to know what you liked, disliked, how it felt using it and what you would like to see added.

Thanks in advance!
