🌱️ Dendron: A Unique Approach To Knowledge Management 🌱️

Dendron is one of my favorite ways to taking notes on technical content now.

It takes advantage of a lot of the great work that has already gone into the VSCode IDE but also the existing extension eco-system.

Where dendron can't do something, there is likely an awesome extension that can.

This is now my go-to way of taking notes of structured and factual content unlike my Zettelkasten that is more of my personal take, ideas, and conjecture on topics.

Dendron makes the organization of notes via the schemas and dot hierarchies an absolute dream and the ease of refactoring a hierarchy makes the management of a lot of this information infinitely easier. I have hundreds of notes now and its just an absolute pleasure to work with Dendron with that content.
