@jws Maybe. I've been reading about the zettelkasten approach for a few years now but not following it. Then they released their app, which has all the features of nvALT and then some specifically. So I went back to basics and have started trying to apply the ideas. I don't have anything to add, yet. And it is early days. But maybe, yes.
There's nothing you can't do in plain nvALT, but some things are very much easier.
