I've been using the Zettelkasten method for a few months now and I could never go back to the way I was taking notes before. I picked "The Archive" for the app and have a Git repo located on OneDrive. It just works and there is no guessing how things get organized.

I can keep my notes not only synced, but I also get version controlled markdown files. You can setup VSCode to accomplish the same tasks through extensions, but it's not 100% perfect.

The Archive is great software, but they also have a fantastic community that's researching this subject.

So what is the organization of your notes?

I would think that to collect knowledge about the world you would (ideally) need to have an ontological model of what are the categories of things we can talk about, and how those categories are connected to each other.

Creating such a model even if only in your head means organizing the knowledge we have and collect, and is not a trivial thing to accomplish.

Or does it not matter with Zettelkasten?
