Spacious nexus

This is a “space.”. It’s what SilverBullet calls them. Likewise, Obsidian calls them “vaults.”. In other words, this is a repository of markdown files. I’ll call this the spacious nexus. These personal knowledge graphs are often referred to as “digital gardens” or “second brains.”.

See CONTRIBUTING.

Frontmatter meaning

  • draft: boolean? - If the document shouldn’t be shown on the explorer in spacious nexus website.
    This document itself is considered a draft, not because it is a draft. But rather its usefulness on the spacious nexus isn’t useful for most of the general public. It is intended to be displayed on the git repository.
  • title: string? - The title of the document. If omitted, the file name of the document is used.
  • publish: boolean? - Only used for explicit unpublishing. If false, prevents the page from being generated by Quartz. All pages are published by default.
  • warning: string? - Used for content warnings on pages. Read the general disclaimer for what this entails.

Structure of this space

  • /Media - Images and videos.
  • /Cards - Open Graph images. Files are named after the page they are for.
  • /Libraries - Libraries used by SilverBullet. Likely excluded from Git. See .gitignore for libraries used by the space.
  • /Discord - Curated Discord messages sent in a semi-private server.

As this space is to be ingested from various Git-based consumers, it’s generally advised keeping attachments small. For images, use lossy webp. The space can contain raw project files (i.e.: .pdn), but these aren’t to be versioned on Git.
