A plain-text personal knowledge management system.

I use org-roam for my PKM (note-taking, digital garden, etc). I started using it in March 2020. Works great for me so far.

It is a note-taking tool for networked thought. The tool encourages a non-hierarchical note-taking workflow. With Org-roam, note-taking becomes effortless and fun: write notes wherever you want, and link them up however you want.

Some things it might be usable for (ideas from reading this article on Roam - https://www.nateliason.com/blog/roam)

• BASB
• productivity
• a CRM

Some of my customisations of org-roam are here.

One downside, or at least something to mull upon - org-roam doesn't make much use of org's heading structure. It's all file-based, each note is a file. No problem with that right now, just it goes a little against how org mode tends to work?
