    Never had to use the dev tools inside VS Code

    what's the default keybinding for dev tools in electron apps usually:
    Ctrl+Shift+I
    I think ?

    i think you need to be running insiders or in development mode to get that toggle to work though

    I started using Dendron seriously today after having read the docs and some of your articles and watched onboarding videos

    Gotta say the schemas feature was kinda holding me back at first, until I saw one of the onboarding videos and figured out they weren't a requirement (not sure why I thought that 🤔)

    But now I understand their use case and power if needed

    One question tho, from what I understood, the graph view visualizes hierarchy only? Is there a mode where links can also be visualized (like in other tools? e.g: Obsidian)
  • k

    yep, graph view currently just does hierarchies. planning on also adding link support, just haven't gotten around to it yet

    and glad that you're able to dive into Dendron 🙂 i got to say, schemas are probably the hardest to grok aspects of dendron 😅 mostly my bad, need to do a better job explaining it
  • k

    09/01/2020, 11:22 PM
    schemas are absolutely not essential. i compare them to types in typescript. there's a lot of power there once you have lots of notes and want to maintain consistent hierarchies but it's not something you need to start with
  • k

    09/01/2020, 11:22 PM
    i think about 60% of my notes are covered with schemas
  • k

    kevins8

    09/01/2020, 11:23 PM
    and it used to be much lower

    I understand you're focusing on development work mainly, but thankfully I found the onboarding videos and it cleared up some confusions for me. (Maybe highlight the onboarding videos a bit more? They might help out some people like it did in my case)
  • k

    kevins8

    09/01/2020, 11:23 PM
    yeah, i might put the links to them on the home page

    also, me and @User had a great discussion about schemas in the #748936364283920495 channel in case you want to hear more of the gory details 😛 https://discordapp.com/channels/717965437182410783/748936364283920495/750404314824048711

    After having invested some time reading the docs and getting familiar with the project, it really "clicked for me", I was considering using Obsidian before deciding on Dendron. I started looking for an "advanced-new-file"-like functionality on Obsidian and then I remembered Dendron is based on VS Code haha

    and I gotta say the lookup feature is great!

    Somewhat of a non-Dendron question if you can help out. I have some extensions that aren't necessary for my notes workspace, any idea how I can "isolate" the workspace in terms of extensions. Or have only some extensions in one workspace and not all workspaces ?
  • k

    kevins8

    09/01/2020, 11:28 PM
    so vscode lets you disable extensions on a per-workspace basis

    you could also run multiple editions of vscode
