# Welcome to my Vault  ## What are these? These are my notes. Instead of a traditional "notebook" approach, it implements the _Digital Garden_ paradigm, which allows me to dynamically nourish the interconnection between notes with [[backlink|backlinks]]. ## Who am I? I'm Samuel Huang, a Software Engineer, entrepreneur, and an amateur singer. I'm enthusiastic about ==Productivity== and ==[[pkm|PKM (Personal Knowledge Management)]]==. This [[obsidian|Obsidian]] vault you are viewing is a crucial part of my system. You may take a look at my [online portfolio](https://sghuang.com) if you didn't already come from it. ## How do I organize this vault? - I have only three subdirectories: `assets`, `books`, and `courses`. - All other notes are placed under the root directory. A flat structure to encourage _Digital Garden_ style note taking. - _[[filename|Lower-kebab case]]_ is adopted in the vault, to maximize compatibility when working from terminal and accessing from web (as you're doing right now.) - Each note is a ==concept==, resulting in a Wiki style system. - Tags - _Nested tags_ are are used for categorization. e.g. `cse/system`, `cse/algorithm`, and `cse/web`. - Additional tags are used to help me retrieve related content, e.g. `leetcode` or `marketing`. ## What can you do with this vault? - **Explore** it, either by browsing the directory, using the search bar, or viewing the graph view. - **Share** it to anyone who you think may benefit from a particular note or the idea of having a _Second Brain_ through this link: [notes.sghuang.com](https://notes.sghuang.com). - **Cite** it, just make sure you're giving credit to the author.
