I think it's just 4 step method! At first, it may feel time-consuming but once you get a grip on it then it's quite easy.
1.I first start by searching for the main topic that I am working on -- #AntibioticResistance in @OK_Maps. Now “Open Knowledge Maps” creates a visual knowledge map of the topic you're searching for. Also, lets you know if a paper has open access.

2.Then, I select a few papers and then head towards @Inciteful_xyz to build a network of papers and for literature connects.
I. Search for your main paper to build a network

III. Your search result will also show-- Recent papers by the top 100 authors and The most important recent papers

For literature connects (especially for interdisciplinary research it's such a great tool)-- search for two main papers and get a detailed and filtered-out map.

3.Now, I head over to @scholarcy (they also have chrome extension) where you make flashcards. These flashcards are tiny breakdowns of the entire paper that highlights important parts of the paper.
Science research assistant which helps to find a word or about anything which you need further reading. As soon as you select a word, it opens in 5 different tabs and lets you know the latest papers, news and web searches.
Note: I do highlight important sentences or methods in the pdf and save them. To use them later if I am presenting or just to refer back.
Anyways, I hope these points turn out to be useful for you.
Thank you for reading!
