Welcome to my Second Brain
What is this?
This is my personal knowledge base - a second brain where I store:
- Technical notes & cheatsheets
- Project ideas
- Learning notes
- Draft thoughts
- Reference material
How it works
| Context | Command | Wiki visible? |
|---|---|---|
| Local dev | just dev-all or hugo server --buildDrafts | ✅ |
| Local dev (blog only) | just dev or hugo server | ❌ |
| Production build | just build / just deploy | ✅ (hidden) |
Production behaviour: Wiki pages are published, linked in the nav menu (
brain), and included in the sitemap so search engines can index them.
Organization
- Tree: Folders by topic (devops/, programming/, etc.)
- Tags: Use
tags:in frontmatter for cross-cutting topics - Links: Use
[[wikilinks]]in Obsidian (they’ll work in Hugo too) - Backlinks: Obsidian’s graph view shows connections
Quick tips
# Create a new wiki note from template
hugo new wiki/topic-name/index.md
# Edit in Obsidian - open the content/ folder as your vault
💡 Both blog posts and wiki notes live in the same
content/folder, so Obsidian sees everything - wiki notes can link to blog posts and vice versa.
