Oh cool, I use Sublime also. I actually made a slightly customized fork of this to help out: https://github.com/unqueued/sublime-notelink

Most people would probably want the more powerful extension[1] which also has wiki link navigation, but it also has some incompatibilities with my setup.

I use a wiki-ish repo. A Journal.md that is my primary work log, but I also make little subpages when I want to expand into something specific or reference something previous.

So, I might do [[2018-10-11_issue_cron-aws-replication-issue]]. If the issue is more complicated, I would just roll it into a more general [[issue_cron-aws-replication-issue]]. I usually don't need to do this, and I try to not let it grow to be too complicated. But having it be somewhat structured has been really helpful. The links can act as tags, and I occasionally use symlinks as redirects. My Git.md page has lots of things I've learned at this job in it.

I keep it synced with my private git repo[2], where the Markdown wiki syntax works seamlessly with the Gollum wiki[3]. This also works if you want to access your wiki hosted on a private github repo.
