New documentation: zd-tutorial
EFLS opened this issue · 9 comments
I've compiled a set of notes that serves as both a tutorial and a knowledge base.
It's available in this repository: https://github.com/EFLS/zd-tutorial
You should be able to clone it and explore it right away. It even includes installation instructions, so you should be able to start even without having Zetteldeft installed.
Please check it out and let me know whether it is as accessible as I hope it is!
maybe a bootstrap script so you can experiment with this in parallel with a growing primary zetteldeft?
You can use this in parallel as it is now. What exactly would you include in such a bootstrap script?
I guess it would change the deft directory.
Ah yes. Well there is actually a bootstrap script included. Both in the Welcome and in the elaborate README there is code to set Deft to the correct directory.
I like it! Lots of good background, etc. And I like the "dogfooding" aspect as I think they call it (using your own product to demonstrate/promote itself).
At first I thought I would add a few more notes in here about my modifications on top of Zetteldeft, but as I am doing more straight "Org" oriented stuff (mainly links) and not using your beloved "§" symbol, perhaps my own little repo / package / gist might be a more appropriate place.
All my stuff is still very WIP anyway, I am just thinking ahead.
Also, I think I bothered you enough today, maybe time to go do something else for a bit. 😄 I'm just really excited about my personal notes again, in a way I haven't been in a very long time. So thanks, again, for that. 🍻

Great to hear, that's what its all about! I'll take a look at your other suggestions when I've got some more time over the next couple of days.
Yeah, don't mind me. I am just on a roll today. 😄
Absolutely no rush, whenever you have time. I just happen to have some at the moment, hence the outpouring of ideas.
Cheers! 🍻
This is great! Would you be interested in additions to this of examples for specific workflows, along the lines of #104 ? I've done a bunch of hacking to make zetteldeft work with various other past systems, and I could maybe write something up if you'd like. That may be too esoteric for the core repo though.
Yeah good idea. Try to make your suggestions "generic" (i.e., not too specific for your single use case), and they can surely be useful for the zd-tutorial.
