Blogging At The Speed of Thought

I use Obsidian as my writing tool. It’s incredibly snappy and allows me to focus on my words instead of dealing with navigating a lot of interfaces.

I am incredibly fast because I can just create a new file by pressing CMD + o then typing out the file name. In this case, I just typed CMD + o then wiki/blogging-at-the-speed-of-thought which creates a new file in my wiki folder.

I then just write this post.

Not only that, Obsidian supports vim keybindings which means I can move around my text super quickly.

When I’m done, I have a command set up where I run wiki-push which does some work behind the scenes to update my Github where this blog is hosted.

If you want more technical details on how this setup works have a look at this article.
