This is an Obsidian Vault

Please clone the repo then open it using the wonderful Obsidian Knowledge Management Tool at https://www.obsidian.md/.

[!hint] Obsidian Download #free

Obsidian.md - A second brain, for you, forever.

Like your project, Obsidian's core strength is that all vaults are stored in local markdown files.

[!question] Curious if you were inspired by Obsidian for local data? Hacked?

Git Repo

  • Created on GitHub since most people/projects/open source lovers seem to live there.
  • I actually like the idea of Bitbucket, since I run my DevOps contracting company off the Atlassian suite, primarily using [[Jira Customer Service Management]].
  • Holy smokes, Jira Customer Service could really help field people into this properly.
    • Dude....
    • Only reason I think you would be open is that I saw the Trello Board for requests/roadmap/issues.
  • Anywhere I use #RX., or just RX w/o hashtag, it means Recommendation.
  • I have strong opinions, but they change within microseconds, agile, pragmatic, feelings not hurt.
    • A lot of what I say may be #n00b not seeing/knowing what's going on, like just now seing your app.ActualBudget.com domain 👍.
  • On the flip-side of that, please don't take anything I say in here personally, with offense, or feeling judged.
    • This all started with my raw notes, meant for me, and I am not cleaning them since then my perfectionism will take over and I will NEVER send this to you.
      • Just more text on my hard drive doing nothing 😢.

Images/Attachments May Be Broken

  • Started as a sub-folder of my main "daily-notes" Obsidian Vault.
  • Therefore some pasted images may not be in the new sub folder that the git repo is based on.
  • I will be cleaning it all up and adding some preferred /.obsidian/ settings, plugins, etc.
    • Missing b/c of the sub-folder thing.

Hi James 👋

Hello Good Sir James,

(jk about the Good Sir, I am not a spammer, I am watching the Green Knight on Amazon right now, chopped into 15 min pieces, like my mind/day/workflow/attention flows)

Although, GitHub repo spam would be a new one..., ewww.

Sorry if I am stepping on toes.

I came across your reddit posts, thankfully, and finally, today (2022-04-28).

Since then, oh my, nearly four hours ago now, I have been putting together notes, like I have been doing for other apps, but in FAR greater detail than usual.

That must mean I like this/you. That my 💘 feels something.

This is a bit more than haphazard, but I felt I should share, since I wanted to ask what #ProjectManagement or #KnowledgeManagement tools you prefer, so I can put items into it.

Appears you are using Trello nicely for managing Incoming work, (love the column name btw, I use it myself all the time but wasn't sure if others did).

I am going to keep my notes in here, this Obsidian vault, using a community member created "plugin" for Kanban Boards.

Please get in touch, I am going to continue anyways, as this has greatly helped me refine what I am looking for in a #FinancialManagementTool / Suite.

Very well done, and deserved name, Good Sir James! 🎉🙏

Some of my random notes below.

  • What almost dis-sold me was seeing the demo reports.
  • Only 2?!
  • I realize now though you know this, you created a whole freaking query language to support his.
  • That is where I want to go.
    • Querying my data, for reports I can create
    • I can share my custom reports
      • I can feel like I am investing time in reports, to share with others, for cred or not, but who doesn't want a little cred deep down inside?!
      • Reports/Add-ons/Extensions Marketplace ( #WhatTerminology do you prefer?) in mind?
        • Cool to be GitHub (or Bitubcket b/c of Trello) repo powered like https://winget.run, ), etc.
        • Let people fork the repo, add their extension, and issue a pull request.
  • My data, but cloud synced because, come on, I am lazy and don't want to do that myself, plus I think your distributed security sounds right on the money (ha, haha, I'm a Dad, I get to make puns).

All the best,
