In Leapfrog you can add quotations and tags to your documents. This allows you to label specific segments of your research for deeper analysis.

Quoting and tagging workflow

Leapfrog is inspired by the grounded theory approach to qualitative research. This approach emphasizes the importance of analyzing data in a way that is meaningful and relevant to the research question.

Quoting and tagging is a way to label the most interesting parts of your research data. This allows you to easily extract and analyze this data in later stages of research. It is a way to reduce the cognitive load of working with large amounts of data.

Quotations

Quotations are a way to label specific segments of your research for deeper analysis. You can add quotations to your documents by selecting text and clicking the quotation button in the toolbar.

Tags

Tags are a way to label specific segments of your research for deeper analysis. You can add tags to your documents by selecting text and clicking the tag button in the toolbar. Each tag has a color and a name. You can add multiple quotes to one tag. These will function as a ‘bucket’ for your quotes. This allows you to easily group and analyze related information in later stages of research.

Codes

Your codes are all your quotes and tags combined. You codes are stored on a workspace level, and are therefore accessible across all documents in your workspace. You can get an overview of all your codes in the codes page. Here you can see all your codes, and get statistics on how many times they appear in your data.
