FAQ
About the templates
What format are the templates in?
Plain markdown. Each template is a folder of `.md` files (notes, checklists, tables) you download and open directly, no import or conversion step.
Do the templates work in Obsidian, Logseq or other markdown apps?
Yes. They're built and tested in Obsidian, so features like backlinks and Dataview queries work out of the box where a template uses them. Because everything is plain markdown, every file also opens and reads correctly in Logseq, VS Code, or any plain-text editor: you just won't see the Obsidian-specific query views.
Do I need Notion or any paid app to use these?
No. There's nothing to sign up for and nothing to subscribe to: the templates are plain-text files you own outright. Obsidian's core app is free, and you can just as easily use a folder of markdown files with no app at all.
How do the templates work with the AI prompt library?
Each template ships with prompts from the library slotted into the workflow they support, for example turning a messy task list into a time-blocked schedule, or generating recall questions from your reading notes. Paste the prompt, drop the AI's output straight into the matching markdown note.
