In org files, I want to have a code block which has markdown format. org mode, even though the markdown content is wrapped in a #+BEGIN\_SRC markdown #+END\_SRC block, still formats the content of the block as new org …

I’m excited to introduce org-roam-ui-lite, a lightweight and maintainable reimplementation of org-roam-ui’s core visualization features. Built with deep respect for the original project’s vision, this implementation focu…

</div>

When I make subheadings into their own nodes (by giving them IDs), nearly all of the time I would prefer they have a different title for search (-ing from everywhere else) than the heading’s name in the document. So, for…

I had written a little package called Delve to enhance the experience of “browsing” or “collecting” org roam notes (which I like to call Zettel). It’s basically a list application, where you can search the database and i…
