org-roam-server

org ecosystem is pretty nice org-agenda for todos/scheduling https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EgOBBiomfGo org-roam is really nice for organizing related items in a graph https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam-server

Indeed, thank for the post! +1 on org-roam, and may I add org-roam-server, which visualises that graph in the browser very nicely, in an interactive way: <https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam-server>

I've been using org-roam for my research for a couple of months now, which has a lot of overlap. The org-roam-server visualisation are really useful for me, since it makes it easier to see what areas have sparsity in them and should be expanded upon. Plus it gives me something more tangible to look at to understand how my research is expanding, there's a bigger sense of "building something". https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam-server

I would say if your workflow is not research-centric where you only implement software, these kinds of methods are not necessary. Only simple note-taking would suffice to ease your brain. On the contrary, if you are reading papers and doing research, taking notes in a meaningful way is more helpful than you would realize. The human brain tends to skip information while reading and you only realize you didn't actually understand that part when you try to write it yourself. The note-taking part doesn't actually take that much brain resources. I am not a native English speaker but I am taking my notes in English. While taking my notes I don't care about grammar or anything, I just read and write what I understood. When I finish the paper and I am comfortable with the topic, I return to my notes, fix grammars and, link them with my other note

Love org-roam. I've been heavily using it for a few months, and not looking back. Don't miss these additional packages, which build on org-roam: org-roam-server: better graph visualization and navigation [1] org-roam-bibtex: Reference management in your Zettelkasten [2] The latter, combined with org-ref and org-noter, is the most effective way I've found for taking notes on PDFs. Beautiful demo at [3]. FWIW RoamResearch has yet to implement a useful graph view, PDF annotation, or reference management. OTOH, tending to a setup like this in Emacs can easily become a time-sink, and it's single-player only.
