#+title: Zettelkasten
#+roam_alias: Slip-box

A style of [[file:20200716214603-taking_better_notes.org][Taking better notes]] by connecting small, narrowly-focused,
interrelated notes developed by Niklas Luhmann. Zettelkasten translates
literally to a slip-box, or a box of notes.

* Core concepts
- Notes should be concise and constrained to a single concept. Multiple concepts
  should be described separately and related via links.
- Notes should be taken in your own words to facilitate understanding, and be
  written in such a way that no additional context is necessary to understand
  them.
- Notes should be discoverable not through a hierarchy of categories, but
  through notes on related concepts chosen by how you'll want to come across the
  note in the future.
