goimapnotify VS Zero-to-Emacs-and-Org-roam

Funny, just dealt with the whole O365 authentication just this week. With moving to 2 factor authentication you need to use OAuth 2 to do anything with it. I have my (work) O365 email forwarded, so I do have normal IMAP access. I use isync/mbsync [1] to receive email, goimapnotify [2] to get pushed new email, read/reply/etc with mu4e [3] and org-msg [4] and org-mode, and until recently just plain SMTP to send mail. This last part will break with 2 factor, but found oauth2ms [5] to set up the OAuth to work with O365 SMTP. The trick was to find the "tenet ID" from the Azure page of your organization and to use Thunderbird's credentials [6] (or another mail program, since I can't make new app registrations on Azure to have my own "application"). That should also allow you to use IMAP with OAuth 2 as well, but haven't done that since I still have the forwarding. (As usual, I think the Arch Wiki [7] covers most of this too.)

Alternatively, I have had success with this way https://github.com/nobiot/Zero-to-Emacs-and-Org-roam/blob/v1/100.pdf-tools-org-noter.md

Have you seen this? https://github.com/nobiot/Zero-to-Emacs-and-Org-roam It's still a work-in-progress but it may be along the lines of what you're looking for.

Personally, I wouldn't recommend setting up org-roam at first. It's excellent, but it's just going to be too daunting for a beginner when combined with all the other things. I'd start by just learning emacs and org-mode. Core org-mode has enough functionality built-in to start building knowledgebases, and the org-mode manual is excellent. You can add-in org-roam later. (And you might find that org-roam is overkill and something like howm mode to get backlinks is enough.) The beauty of emacs is that you can move your notes from one system to another easily.

I'm new to org-roam and trying to use v2 directly. My process is currently looking at the excellent manual (https://www.orgroam.com/manual.html) and intro (https://github.com/nobiot/Zero-to-Emacs-and-Org-roam) for v1 and trying to map these to v2. But as I managed to install org-roam and emacsql-sqlite3 in Android/Termux just yesterday evening, I can't say if it's useable enough.

For Windows, I have done this. So far, it works really well

My primary goal is to keep notes organized, portable and "connected" using Emacs, so focus is still on it and in few days I think I will have my favorite setup using Emacs + Org + roam. In the process I discovered Zero-to-Emacs-and-Org-roam - kudos to the creator - really helped me.
