Organize documents, structured information, and shared project context in a workspace.
WHY HEREConnect shared context with the work it explains.
Knowledge & discovery
Obsidian
Write local Markdown notes and link related ideas into a personal knowledge system.
THE SELECTION NOTE
Why it’s here
Obsidian is selected for a file-first approach to notes. Links are useful when they express a relationship you understand; a large graph alone is not the goal. Begin with a small set of notes you will revisit.
Who it fits
Writers and researchers who prefer local Markdown notes.
A task to try: Connect three notes around one question
- Write a source note, a question, and your current conclusion.
- Link the notes and explain why each connection matters.
- Open the Markdown files outside the app to understand what you are keeping.
Where to be careful
Separate the core note workflow from optional plugins, Sync, and Publish. Choose extensions only when a repeated need justifies them.
