GoKawiilZotero Celebrates 20 Years of Development Focused on Durability
On October 5, 2006, Zotero was launched after five years of careful development, emphasizing a deliberate and collaborative process over rapid creation. Its founders, a group of historians with coding skills, prioritized building a resilient tool for research management rather than quick fixes enabled by AI.
