Graph
Visualise your notes and their connections in a 2d graph
The graph view turns your workspace into an interactive map of ideas. Every note becomes a node, and the links between them become visible connections—giving you a bird's-eye view of how your thoughts relate to each other.
The Basics
Think of the graph as a constellation of your notes. Each dot represents a markdown file, and the lines between them show where notes reference each other through wikilinks. The graph includes three types of nodes: regular notes, daily/weekly entries, and tags—each visually distinct so you can tell them apart at a glance.
What makes it interactive is the physics simulation running behind the scenes. Connected notes naturally cluster together, and you can drag nodes around to reorganize things however you like (though it won't save your layout—it's just for exploring during that session).
Navigating the Graph
Using the graph is intuitive. Click any node to open that note in a new tab. Hover over a node to see its title and watch its immediate connections light up. You can zoom in to focus on a specific cluster of related notes, or zoom out to see your entire knowledge network at once.
The graph uses force-directed layout algorithms to position everything automatically. Notes that reference each other pull closer together, while unrelated notes drift apart. It's like watching your ideas organize themselves.
Searching the Graph
Need to find a specific note or connection quickly? Use the graph search feature by clicking the magnifying glass icon at the top right or pressing Cmd/Ctrl + F.
When you search, matching notes are highlighted and zoomed into view while other nodes dim into the background. If your search finds exactly one match, the graph will zoom in maximally on that note, making it easy to see its immediate connections and context.
Understanding Connections
The graph reveals relationships you might not notice otherwise:
Solid lines connect notes that link to each other directly through [[internal links]]. Notes that share common tags cluster around those tags, showing thematic relationships. And isolated nodes—those lonely dots floating by themselves—are orphan notes that haven't been linked to anything yet. They're a good reminder of content that might need connecting.
The more two notes reference each other, the stronger their visual connection tends to be. It's a simple but powerful way to see which ideas are most tightly woven together in your workspace.
