My garden is where notes grow in public - linked, imperfect, alive on Hugo and Git.
Key Concept
- My digital garden is a personal site where notes grow in public.
- Level 1: I post half-finished notes on my site so friends can watch them grow, like seeds in a window box.
- Level 2: A digital garden is like a backyard plot posted online - plants still growing, not a polished store display.
- Level 3: Because notes stay linked and visible, neighbors and feedback shape ideas faster than a private folder ever would.
- Level 4: Post the rough note, link two neighbors, and revise in public - waiting until it feels finished slows the whole garden.
- Level 5: Public, linked, imperfect notes beat a private hoard - Evergreen Notes can still mature in public without pretending the first draft was final.
- Public, linked, imperfect notes beat a private hoard.
- Update in public instead of hoarding drafts until they feel ready.
Examples
- Our team playbook wiki still has last season's sets beside this year's - I replace a drill when I learn better, not when the first version was supposed to be final.
- My garden posts stay linked and imperfect - notes grow in public instead of rotting in a folder until they are ready.
