need package(plugin) and resources suggestions for Note taking setup - New to emacs
Hey there, here's some packages that might help you: - Org Roam - Denote - Zk
-
Emacs and knowledge management for scientists
The citar package, which I created, has note integration packages available for both org-roam and denote (along with zk).

note-taking without org roam.
You could try denote as some others suggest. I found this, which takes inspiration from zettelkasten like roam but uses plain text and no database, https://github.com/localauthor/zk

looking for a solution for note-taking
You might try zk. I think it checks most of those boxes. https://github.com/localauthor/zk

Zettelkasten Options
Thanks for the links. A lot of ideas are very relatable and I agree, that the Zettelkasten might not fit the general note taking needs. As I pointed out, I am specifically interested in utilizing the zettelkasten-method in a research-workflow aiming to assist (and track) a structured cognition process. However, tools like org-roam and delve (which I recently checked out) introduce a certain degree of complexity to the system -- especially if you want to understand the technicalities of the utilized solution. Therefore, I'm very much intrigued by zk, developed by /u/oldjawbone recently. Asking you as the die hard PIM-enthusiast who you certainly are: What is your opinion on zk's general design decisions? Do you think it is reasonably future-proof,/u/publicvoit?

Help with emacs evil shotcut to change per mode
Where I define shortcuts for different action p for project actions (Pressing SPC - p opens project actions) , n for denote and so on. And for denote for example I do something like this:
-
orgmode mega-files or many individual files?
The denote page is here, https://protesilaos.com/emacs/denote , and the code can be acquired on github https://github.com/protesilaos/denote

Video Series: Denote as a Zettelkasten
So, if you want to contribute to bringing the signature feature to the main branch, you can work with it for a while and relay your experience and use cases to the discussion on github.

Is there something like org roam but for files?
Yesterday, somebody found out that filetags do share some similarities with Prot's denote which is discussed here: https://github.com/protesilaos/denote/issues/117 You might want to read that as well. I added a comment with a few remarks how I'm using the concept within Emacs Org mode.

org-roam vs org-super-links
I am in the same boat. I have never been able to shake the feeling that org-roam is unnecessarily complex and reinvents the wheel a bunch; which might or might not be true, but for all my use cases so far, I haven't needed/used a feature that warrants so many moving pieces. I have a todo item to move my notes from org-roam to denote instead, which I am eyeing for its apparent simplicity.

Try denote. I use it a lot, Im happy with it.
