    • Get list of child notes
    • Open parent note
  • Create a note
    • Create in root directory or in last active file's path

How to organize your workspace

You may store all your notes in one folder or create some filesystem hierarchy with folders.

But flow will be the same.

Create a new note

Run the Structured Plugin: Create a note command.

Note which will place in the same folder as the current note. (if there is no note open, create in root)

Navigate notes

  1. Open open note
  2. You may use
    • Structured Plugin: Open parent note - opens parent note.

      Example: aws.ec2.security-groups is opened, after running command aws.ec2 will be opened

    • Structured Plugin: Get parent notes

      Example: aws.ec2.security-groups is opened, after running command list with aws.ec2, aws will be displayed

    • Structured Plugin: Get children notes

      Example: aws is opened, after running command list with aws.ec2.security-groups, aws.ec2.security-groups will be displayed

Rename a note

  1. Open some note

  2. Run Structured Plugin: Rename current note

    The note won't move to any new dir.

Add keybinding for plugin actions.
