    I have just started, and decided to use Mkdocs for my personal notes, journaling, and a budding novel that kept buzzing around in my head and wants out. In the moment I just throw titles, links, citations and bits of text in a document, later I hope to be able to sort through the mess and separate into chapters. Let’s see. I’ve connected it to a git repository on codeberg for backup. I did this because I like to write in Markup and decided to use the same setup to create a static page for my business (with My Webapp on Yunohost to serve). Then I just kept the same for my notes. I like super simple folder based setups without too many bells and whistles cause I find them distracting. Focuswriter on the other hand was too basic without the ability to create links between files.
