digital-gardeners VS plurid

Digital Gardens are freeform, public collections of ever-evolving personal knowledge, comparable to an "open" PKM system. Maggie Appleton is my go to thinker about them: She's written about them here and here.

some ideas which came into my mind: 1. You can always ask your question in this subreddit. 2. Bob Doto's Zettelkasten class I now open, if you want to learn about the process of taking notes: https://bobdoto.computer/zettelkasten-class (a Digital Garden is a public Zettelkasten in my opnion) 3. Maggie Appleton's github is very helpful for learning about Digital Gardening: https://github.com/MaggieAppleton/digital-gardeners

Well, as a fellow nerd with too much time and little qualifications, I offer you my compliments and encouragement! And if you'd ever find the time and the will to return to the website idea, I suggest you look into the concept of digital gardens, which are sort of anti-blogs (non-chronological, incomplete by design, encourage thinking aloud).

The website's theme and philosophy is around digital garden. I've been trying to build one myself and I found this list as a source of inspiration: https://github.com/MaggieAppleton/digital-gardeners#digital-...

If you want a comprehensive summary of digital gardening, you can't go wrong with Maggie Appleton's A Brief History & Ethos of the Digital Garden or her repo of resources.

Permanence is my concern with the indie blog hosting services mentioned here (bearblog, prose.sh, nicheless.blog)

Also, because you already have a lot of the content, maybe you don't need a blog? what about a "digital garden" ?

Tools (easy options included) -> https://github.com/MaggieAppleton/digital-gardeners

If you have your content in a note-taking app like obsidian, there is even simple tutorials on how to freely publish it with all those precious "multiple tags per category", all in one go.

and here is a general collection of dope blog additions: https://brainbaking.com/post/2022/04/cool-things-people-do-w...

My overall advice is unless you're a designer flexing your skills is to focus less on the design and more on the actual writing! The internet is littered with the emaciated husks of nice good looking sites hosting nary an entry beyond "How I Made My New Blog With X"

There’s a term digital garden and personal wiki that might help you find this kind of thing.

Here’s a curated list: https://github.com/MaggieAppleton/digital-gardeners

Includes resources on how to start your own.

Been thinking since 2015 how to explore information as a 3D structure: plurid [1]. The stable library is for now only for React.

Since 2015 I have been thinking how to explore information as a 3D structure. This thought has led to developing plurid [1], [2], a component library (for React for now) to transform a web page into a rotate-able/translate-able/scale-able space with the content on planes.

plurid' is an open-sourced software package to generate 3D user interfaces

I gave this a bit of thought earlier this year (https://alexanderell.is/posts/visualizing-code/) and, with the help of HN commenters, collected a small list of ways people are working to help with code visualization. I don't think most of them are production ready (some are just research papers), but you may find them interesting all the same.

SoftVis3D (https://softvis3d.com/): where a "‘code city’ view provides a visualization for the hierarchical structure of the project".

Code Park: A New 3D Code Visualization Tool (2017) (https://arxiv.org/pdf/1708.02174.pdf), a “novel tool for visualizing codebases in a 3D game-like environment” with code represented as “code rooms” with code on the walls.

Code Structure Visualization Using 3D-Flythrough (2016) (https://opus-htw-aalen.bsz-bw.de/frontdoor/deliver/index/doc...), with spatial metaphors and first-person exploration of code.

Primitive (https://primitive.io/), a VR collaboration startup with a Matrix-looking “Immersive Development Environment” with “new tools for visually analyzing software in 3D”.

AppMap (https://appland.com/docs/how-to-use-appmap-diagrams.html), an automated code analysis tool that includes dependency maps and trace views.

plurid (https://github.com/plurid/plurid), a framework for visualizing and debugging code in a 3D explorable structure.

fsn (file manager) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fsn_(file_manager)), an experimental application to view a file system in 3D (featured in Jurassic Park).
