Memorize - VSCode

This is the Visual Studio Code extension of Memorize.

📓 Memorize is a set of tools that allows you to use markdown files as a Zettelkasten note-taking system.

Background

The idea behind Memorize :

  • Use regular markdown files.
  • Respect a minimum schema. No more than 10 convention to be respected.
  • Do not depend on any specific software to edit the files. Use the editor of your choice.
  • Provide tools that check the files and help to respect the conventions.
  • Provide tools to explore the information in an interactive way.

💡 How Memorize works :

Memorize build a zettelkasten interpreting all the Markdown files inside a directory.

It will parse both, the front-matter (in yaml) and the content of the file.

For example, given this file :

---
id: 20200224175325
tags:
  - tag
  - example_tag
references: []
---
# Example zettle

My markdown #IsCool

Memorize would build the following object :

{
    "id": "20200120160015",
    "references": [],
    "tags": ["tag", "example_tag", "iscool"],
    "title": "Example zettle",
}

If for example, you want to make a link between two zettels you just need to include the zettelId inside the markdown body or in the references array.

For example, given this new file :

---
id: 20200224175326
tags:
  - tag
references: 
  - 20200120160010
---
# Second zettle

- [Example zettel](20200120160015)

Memorize would build the following object :

{
    "id": "20200120160016",
    "references": ["20200120160010", "20200120160015"],
    "tags": ["tag"],
    "title": "Second zettle",
}
