Second-Brain VS Zettel

Here are also two curated lists of digital gardens so you may check more: - Second-Brain list - Digital Gardeners list

There's more examples (of varying quality) here: https://github.com/KasperZutterman/Second-Brain

For outlines, use Markdown. I tried to document my software setup at https://github.com/flengyel/Zettel/wiki.

If you follow the links I provided, you would see that I did indeed use dot-delimited IDs.

I also use Zettlr to take notes that are not handwritten, that might suit your needs (?) https://github.com/flengyel/zettel/wiki/Zettelkasten-software-components

It's straightforward to ensure that a digital Zettelkasten has spanning trees in each connected component of the Zettel graph with timestamp IDs. I make template Zettels available at my github site.

Mathematically, Luhmann's Folgezettel numbering (not a term Luhmann used) gives you a distinguished spanning tree in each connected component of the graph of Zettels of a Zettelkasten. Since the software system I use doesn't support Folgezettel IDs, I use an alternative with timestamp IDs at https://github.com/flengyel/Zettel.
