my digital garden is also a zettelkasten

[[distillation-data]]

I like to call my my note-taking system a digital garden because digital gardening is a squishy concept.

Under my definition of a digital garden, my system is one. I usually prefer to describe using characteristics rather than labels, but I use garden terminology because I like it; sometimes using a whimsical name adds a bit of whimsy.

Using “Zettelkasten” to describe my system would be equally valid since all definitions of Zettelkasten are speculative; I just prefer the fun of saying garden.

Topics

const fieldName = "theme"; // Your field with links
const oldPrefix = "Thoughts/01 Themes/";
const newPrefix = "Digital Garden/Topics/";
 
const relatedLinks = dv.current()[fieldName];
 
if (Array.isArray(relatedLinks)) {
    // Map over the links, replace the path, and output only clickable links
    dv.el("span",
        relatedLinks
            .map(link => {
                if (link && link.path) {
                    let newPath = link.path.startsWith(oldPrefix)
                        ? link.path.replace(oldPrefix, newPrefix)
                        : link.path;
                    return dv.fileLink(newPath);
                }
            })
            .filter(Boolean).join(", ") 
	// Remove any undefined/null items
    );
} else {
    dv.el(dv.current().theme);
}
