so this is the default view, right?

Yes

i’ll look more into it tommorow, i’m currently on mobile

It does not, no. Does it work for you?

Hello, My preview page has a light theme since this morning while it was always in dark mode. Is this due to the new VsCode release? I tried to change the settings of the dendron: Markdown extension but without success. Any tips?

Dendron Markdown Preview Enhanced is legacy and we don't maintain it anymore. Can you try using our native preview? (

Dendron: Show Preview

in command palette.)

I was actually using the Dendron native preview but I don't know how to turn it back to dark mode

We don't currently support changing how the preview looks, so if it turned into a light theme this will indicate that something went wrong. Can you create a bug report for this?

I've noticed git mentioned a lot in the docs, is there any problem using an alternate scm (specifically fossil) or are functions in Dendron tied directly to specific capabilities in git?

I've used the

NPM SCRIPTS

tab to run scripts in powershell (I'm on windows) which seems to get around needing bash, but I'm getting errors. As this is a vault I have not touched in about 4 months, I'm not sure the scripts have been updated to the current versions. Is the a step to do this?

I have no aversion to git, I just prefer fossil for the scale of my personal projects.

Our syncing capabilities (i.e. workspace sync), and anything that fetches from a remote repository are tied to git. Once a repository that contains a vault or workspace is pulled in, they will work as intended, but you won't be able to use any Dendron capabilities that expects a git repository. So for example, you will have to push and pull your notes manually with your preferred SCM.

We also gitignore some files that you may want to hide / not track in your workspace repository, so you will also need to take care of that however Fossil handles it.

Can you elaborate? What kind of scripts are you trying to run?

I'll probably just stick to using git with Dendron, I've already committed a dedicated vscode install to it, and yeah, I can make that work for me for sure.

Tried dev, build, and start. Trying to get the static files to generate

Can you share what errors you are getting?

Looks like it's pulling a very old version of

nextjs-template

. Could you remove the

.next

directory and try again? Also make sure both Dendron (the extension and cli) are up to date.

My code syntax is no longer correctly displayed on my note preview. I feel something is wrong with my note preview (light mode instead of dark mode and this). Everything was working like a charm up until now

hmm.. it looks like there's a problem with loading CSS. Which version of Dendron are you currently on?

v0.88.0

Understood. Just to be clear, this wasn't happening until now, and you were still on v0.88.0 when it was working? or did this happen right after an upgrade from a past version?

Exactly. the only change was the update to 1.66 of VSCODE (I would say that it is automatic for me, I am not sure). The update was today, if I'm not mistaken

note to self, don't update my portable installs of VSCode quite yet

well, at least the one i'm using for Dendron

Does anyone have any guidance/examples/practices of using Dendron for atomic notes (https://notes.andymatuschak.org/z4Rrmh17vMBbauEGnFPTZSK3UmdsGExLRfZz1 )? This is the one area where I find the dot hierarchy a bit more confusing. In obsidian, I had note titles that were clear statements, and I’m not sure what that looks like in Dendron.

There is no one "right" answer to this, but if I would do this, I would have a shallow (one or two level deep) hierarchy where I keep all my atomic notes. (e.g.

food.burgers-should-be-wide-not-tall

Or even just

burgers-should-be-wide-not-tall

) There is no enforcement of hierarchical structure in Dendron. It is just another way of organizing. If you want to apply a more rigid structure here, you could always keep the file name short, but titles as clear statements. (e.g.

f.m.burger.ff.bp.wide-not-tall.md

, and

title: Burgers Should be Wide not Tall

in frontmatter.) The wikilink for this would then be

[[Burgers Should be Wide not Tall|f.m.burger.ff.bp.wide-not-tall]]

Can you try reverting back to an older version of Dendron and see if this problem persists? This would indicate that VSCode would be the culprit. You can right click on Dendron and choose "install another version":
