<%= gettext("why split up into notes, contexts and pipelines?") %>

<%= gettext( "i really admired the idea of a zettelkasten, especially with org-mode backlinks, however I felt like my notes would immediately become too messy by just putting everything into a single hierarchy." ) %>

<%= gettext( "i wanted to separate between a personal dictionary of concepts and then my thought processes that are built off of my experiences and life lessons. these are notes, and contexts, respectively." ) %>

<%= gettext( "finally, i wanted to externalize the processes for common situations that use these thought processes at discrete steps. these are pipelines!" ) %>

<%= gettext("what should my notes be like?") %>

<%= gettext( "in my opinion, notes should be written by any of the discrete objects or concepts that are meaningful to you in your life." ) %>

<%= gettext( "spoons? probably not. a particular brand of spoons that you really like? why not :)" ) %>

<%= gettext("what should my contexts be like?") %>

<%= gettext("in my opinion, contexts should be like single-topic blog posts.") %>

<%= gettext( "for instance, a good context could be what makes some physical designs spark joy for you, and in that context you could backlink to the spoon note as an example of how it fits nicely into your hand." ) %>

<%= gettext("what should my pipelines be like?") %>

<%= gettext( "in my opinion, pipelines should be pretty lightweight, and just backlink to contexts to provide most of the heavy lifting." ) %>

<%= gettext( "for instance, a pipeline for buying an object could have a step where you consider how much it sparks joy, and it could backlink to the physical designs context, maybe with some notes about how it applies in this case." ) %>

<%= gettext("how many people should i invite?") %>

<%= gettext( "while memEx fully supports multiple users, each memEx instance should be treated as a single cohesive and collaborative document." ) %>

<%= gettext( "note, context and pipeline slugs must be unique, and you are free to backlink to notes not written by you." ) %>

<%= gettext( "so, i'd recommend inviting anyone you'd like to work on your collective memEx. however, when in doubt, hopefully setting up a new instance is easy enough. if it isn't, then feel free to let me know :)" ) %>
