Gotcha

@User Hm, so... lets say you have an existing GH repo with some Python files (1.py, 2.py, etc), you would create a Dendron Native Workspace (with dendron.yml, etc) within the repo to create docs and to create the static site of the docs, etc.

Is that right?

that's my understanding, but I'm probably not the right person to ask about this; I haven't done much with this functionality yet

Oh its good! Thank you. I'm actively experimenting with the various configs.

I'm not sure where these files came from in my Workspace folder. Can I delete them?

They're from automatic changes to the config during Dendron upgrades. You can safely delete them

I haven't looked into native workspaces yet. They way I handled this was rather separate local vaults in my main workspace. So in your example I'd create a subfolder docs in the repo and then add that folder to my dendron workspace

Ok. That makes sense to me. And for your goal, the reason you're integrated Dendron into an existing (or new) code project, is to manage the documentation for the code (getting started, reference, etc) and provide a static site (GH Pages, Netlify, etc) for the project. Is that accurate?

maybe a naive question related with "Show Note Graph", when you click on a node in the graph to open a note, it seems like the graph is gone, how to get back to the graph?

a question on links in the "Note Preview" panel: when you click on a children link or a backlink in the Preview panel, how can you go back to the previous page? Thanks. Sorry if this is an obvious question.

Any idea how to rename vaults

I'm afraid that's manual for now: you'd want to rename the directory, then edit the references in the

folders

section of

dendron.code-workspace

and the

workspace:vaults

section of

dendron.yml

. For that to take effect you'd want to reload the VS Code window

Got it thanks @User

How do people jot notes in the dendron system when on mobile?

some options are listed here: https://blog.dendron.so/notes/fDCVPEo3guCFWPdxokXHU/

typically people will sync with git, but there are other options like syncthing

How do people jot notes in the dendron system when on mobile?

Hi all, is there any place here or elsewhere where people share their Dendron notes? I want to see how other people use it to wrap my head around it better. Anyone got anything that you could show?

There are links to a few in the "Dendron Showcase" section of this "Awesome List" for Dendron-related things: https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/discussions/2118

Evening, Is there any up to date doco on using pods from the cli? Looking to use vault specific, export Markdown Pod V2 from the cli

put your Dendron vault inside an Obsidian folder. Then use Obsidian on mobile

thanks! its neat how i can use all these different tools as they are interacting with just plain markdown in a folder.

Creating notes in a vault can get overwhelming when you make alot of them. Do you create folders within a vault to store them? is this a best practice ?

not sure if this is useful, but i recently found this: https://zettelkasten.de/introduction/#structure-notes

@User I get this but lets say one of my vaults has about 50 task notes and around 15 journal notes. It get cluttered in a single vault. The only thing I can think of is creating a index note

With Dendron you organize your notes within hierarchies, not folders. For stuff like journals I don't find any need to organize them since they are all named on the date I took them. I link to task notes from journal notes. For other types of notes (tools, recipes, project ideas), I organize them under hierarchies like "recipes.baked.pizza.classic". So if I know I'm looking for a pizza recipe, I can just pull up the lookup and type "recipes pizza", and it will show me all the pizza recipes I have.

Agree and when you refactor notes over time, this becomes an advantage, as there aren't lots of empty folders left behind. I tend not to navigate to my files using the "workspace/explorer", but just using the lookup (

Ctrl+L

) - or if it's daily journals, using the calendar view (which nicely highlights all the dates with daily journal entries). It will become faster than browsing folder structures eventually 🙂

I think what @User is saying (I feel the same way), is the clicking the VS Code Explorer gives an "overwhelming view" of non-hierarchical files. Granted, the dot notation IS a hierarchical structure, but without any visual FOLDING (think code folding/Markdown collapse, etc), it can be too much.
