#+filetags: :concept:methodology:productivity:
The Zettelkasten (German for "slip box") is a note-taking method developed by sociologist Niklas Luhmann.
* Key Features
- Each note contains one idea ([[file:atomic-notes.org][Atomic Notes]])
- Notes link to each other extensively ([[file:linking.org][Linking]])
- No strict hierarchy - emergence through connections
* How It Works
