I don’t overcomplicate it. Just create a new note and write. Often times I’ll create something for each day and just jot whatever down throughout the day. A lot of developers keep a random text file open all the time anyway for that type of thing, so just think of it that way.

I’ll add a ## header if needed to separate a topic here and there too.

If I remember an earlier note that was similar I’ll [[ to create an internal link.

Copying and pasting PDFs, images or other reference material is easy since by Obsidian can just copy those files into a local attachments folder.

If there’s a good reference video on YouTube or something, you can just embed it.

If my sidebar of notes gets longer than the screen I’ll take a few minutes and sort them into folders.

Honestly, there’s no fancy or organized workflow here. I just keep it open and write as it makes sense, then clean up every now and then when needed. Whatever is most comfortable for you is the right way. It’s your notes.
