Interview with Citizen #8213712⌗

Q: How does your workflow look like? Specifically in terms of management. What tools and services do you use?⌗

💻 Unlike my interviewer, i use software for everything. Pen and paper is inefficient in terms of speed and also when it comes to storage and organization.

📁 Keeping everything close with folder structures allows me to quickly navigate from year to year, topic to topic, project to project etc.

🛈 Markdown is my format of choice as it’s vercetile and simple to use. It can be converted into other formats, such as blogpost, slideshow, pdf, etc…

🌐 I use LIBRE software and work with files directly instead of relying on “solutions” such as notion, word, evernote etc…⌗

🗒️ Infobase (The core)⌗

VimWiki

  • for managing projects, notes, todolists etc…

  • A systemwide CAPS + N keypress will open the index page (index.md)

  • Markdown files can link to other .md files, which creates a tree. This makes everything very convenient and organized

  • TAB ENTER BACKSPACE to navigate between links

Taskwarrior

  • TaskWarrior can be implemented into VimWiki with the taskwiki vim plugin.
task add dosomething project:projectname +dev +othertags

adds a task entry called dosomething in “projectname” with the “dev” tag

  • tags come in handy because now you can display “+dev” tasks in dev.md which will give you an overview of ALL your dev projects and their corresponding todos in one file.
