Porting this knowledge base into Obsidian/Roam?

[yangwao]

Hey, I've recently started playing around with obsidian (sort of Personal Knowledge Management) but has the perk of the global and local graph and you can see relations between blocks of information, great for researchers. I was thinking that this is a resourceful wiki tho!

I'm thinking about how I could be helpful in this.

I'm not familiar with that. Could you expound?

[yangwao]

No worries, it's pretty new, to have your own second brain. Literally, it works like a Wikipedia engine, but the intent is to generate new ideas and connections you may missing from one's perspective, having local and global graph view is extremely helpful.

Then you connect it with Zettelkasten approach which

Essentially, it's a method to store and organize your knowledge, extend your memory, and generate new connections and ideas.

Here is i.e. what I'm doing for myself on the biohacking topic

A Zettelkasten is basically a directory of Markdown notes that are linked to one another. I developed neuron to publish Zettelkasten sites. You can get some pretty good navigation with it; for example see the top (tree) as well the bottom (backlinks) of https://www.srid.ca/neuron

https://github.com/srid/neuron-template is a good way to create a neuron site using GitHub Pages.

(Obsidian is not open source, but you can use it to edit; I personally use VSCode).
