This garden separates capture, evidence, and synthesis without turning the file tree into a taxonomy.
Notes
Every file in notes aims to express one claim that can stand on its own. Topic structure emerges through wikilinks, tags, backlinks, and search rather than nested folders.
Sources
A source note is a stable record for a book, paper, course, video, or other reference. Notes link back to it and use an in link for the exact chapter, heading, page, or timestamp.
For example, A slice borrows from its source points to both The Rust Programming Language and the precise section that supports the note.
Articles
Articles are the synthesis layer. They connect several notes into a larger explanation while leaving the underlying notes reusable elsewhere.
