A digital garden is where notes grow in public - linked, imperfect, alive on Hugo and Git.
Key Concept
- Public, linked, imperfect notes beat a private hoard.
- Update in public instead of hoarding drafts until they feel ready.
Level 1 - Recognize
A digital garden is a personal site where linked notes grow in public - imperfect, revised, alive instead of hoarded until ready.
Level 2 - Explain
Like a backyard plot posted online - plants still growing, not a polished store display where every leaf looks final.
Level 3 - Use
Post the rough note, link two neighbors, and revise in public - waiting until it feels finished slows the whole garden.
Level 4 - Connect
Public, linked, imperfect notes beat a private hoard - Evergreen Notes can still mature in public without pretending the first draft was final.
Level 5 - Create
Build a public garden where rough notes link to neighbors, show revision, and invite feedback that can grow the ideas into new claims.
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.
