VS Code: for the terminal so I can use hugo archetypes to quickly create new files, + to handle version control.
Obsidian: where I’m trying to do most of my writing the lack of a good mobile writing experience resulted in me using this less & less, to the point where I don’t even use it on the computers anymore. What I loved about obsidian, is I got to capture my notes in markdown, so transfering to another app/platform, like this hugo site, is made easy.
all the notes are written in markdown. A decent bunch of them were brought in from mu obsidian notes.
fun fact, the first iteration of this site was done using obsidian publish, which is also a great platform when in the right context.
mobile & quick capture
Apple notes: allows for natively captured & shared notes on phone & laptop. little bit of vendor lock in, but that’s okay for the quick capture stuff.
this is also where I keep journal & personal notes.
this is also where the first draft notes for this site exist. when I’m ready to expand on a note, I quickly create a markdown file using hugo archetypes, and copy paste. This process also ensures I look at a note twice before first publish. allows me to catch some silly mistakes sometimes, haha.
