A digital garden is a website you tend rather than broadcast. A blog is a stream — dated, chronological, finished. A garden is a collection of living notes that grow and interlink over time.

Core traits:

  • Non-linear. You arrive by following a link, not by scrolling a feed.
  • Evergreen. Notes get revised in place as thinking changes.
  • Interlinked. Ideas connect via wikilinks, and every page shows what links back to it.

It pairs naturally with how notes already live in an Obsidian vault — see the colophon.
