Start quick by using this Logseq Starter Kit

[@toolsontech]

Because a lot of people find this helpful, I'm placing it on Github so people can fork it and send updates. github.com/bgrolleman/logseq_template

[@WulfGar]

Some very good work here, Bas. Thank you for making this available to everyone.

[@toolsontech]

Sure thing, having a base starting point was a thought I had for a long time. If I had realized so many people would enjoy it I would have set it up sooner.

[@AthanassiosHatzis]

Hi Bas, thank you for sharing this Starter Kit with us...

[@toolsontech]

Any time, hope to update it once in a while with feedback from more people as having a place to start really helps I think

[@MrHugomesquita]

Hell yeah! Keep bringin' them sweet sweet Logseq videos Bas. This is awesome. I've been using Logseq for just over a year and there is always some new to learn from the man! ❤

[@agedlace6621]

Thank you for taking the time the create, and share, this!

[@toolsontech]

Thanks for watching it! Glad it was useful

[@martingjerde3351]

Excellent resource, can’t wait to take it for a spin! Will post update once I have

[@toolsontech]

Do let me know, I would love to improve/tweak it.

[@LifeSMyth]

Love this Bas. Thank you so much. Headed to get the template right now.

[@toolsontech]

so glad it's helping lots of people 😁

Great video! I just started with Logseq and all of your videos about this topic are very helpful. Same for your demo graph. Just one question: do you have a shortcut for the bold current timestamp? I already know, I can get the 'unformated' timestamp with /Current Timestamp. But how do I get it bold the same time? Thanks. EDIT - And a second question: why have you created a namespace with the 'My/'-prefix?

[@toolsontech]

I use the Logseq Interstitial Journal plugin to add a CTRL+T for bold timestamp, one of my most used plugins. The My/ prefix is for any personal workflow pages. For example "Workflow" might contain notes on workflows, good ideas, links to other workflow concepts. But My/Workflow has my personal as I'm using it right now workflow that's short and sweet. Bonus is that I can easily find all my work by searching for My/ (My/Projects, My/Tasks, My/Workflow, My/Tags)

Great video bro

[@toolsontech]

Thanks bro! pretty sure I was more relaxed thanks to the snowboarding

[@pookznl]

@@toolsontech you look stressed, lets go?

[@flowchan]

Thank you for this wonder video. I have started following your system. However, I am still a bit confused in how to distinguish the different usages between the two set of pages. For example, what is the difference in the use of My/Templates vs. My___Templates?

[@toolsontech]

Logseq converts My/Templates to My___Templates.md in the filesystem, this is something they did because not every filesystem (like iOS) is based around folders. So in effect, they should be the same thing.

[@johncavanaugh6481]

How do you separate out work vs personal??? Do you put them in separate graphs? Thus far Ive been tagging tasks with #todo/personal or #todo/work but that is a bit of a pain. I wish logseq had a way to reference context or something with tasks.

[@toolsontech]

For my freelance work I have separate graphs due to NDA requirements. The rest I mix everything but add area to it. So I might have a block with [[toolsontech]] and have notes/tasks below that so they all get marked as toolsontech. Taking it a level higher, what is the need to split at work / personal level VS context like @office and @home

[@yohanesliong4818]

Thank you

[@CharlesTutt]

Very helpful

[@alxlg]

What's the advantage of using namespaces instead of just writing an indented list of pages in Contents, since it appears by default in the right sidebar? P.S. the Logseq team should provide something like this as a way to communicate how they think Logseq should be used, then one would deviate but a starting point would be helpful.

[@toolsontech]

Main benefit for Namespace for me is that I can search namespaces when using block complete, so [[Topic/ gives me all my topics and I can make multi levels that get autocombined if I go up a level. Say topic/pkm/notetaking doesn't get me enough results I go up a level and check topic/pkm/notetaking. I'll need to do a full video on that workflow, it's on my long list. :)

[@cemlokmal3566]

Perfecto

[@ramk6325]

8:29 not making fun of you but the way you said alias reminded me of Rowan Atkinson comedy: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6jMZoimptyWntE

[@toolsontech]

Getting compared with Rowan Atkinson is a great honor. And I can take a punch so feel free to make fun of me any time.

[@wernerjakobsmeier8351]

Bullshit!

[@toolsontech]

Having a rough day?

[@wernerjakobsmeier8351]

Very rough.@@toolsontech

[@toolsontech]

Sucks, I had days like that. Hope it gets better.
