This is the starter vault for Beadli Lab Academy, set up the way I run my own: a place for daily notes, one page per project, and a folder for reference material you'll want again later.
Open it in Obsidian: File > Open Vault > Open folder as vault, then pick this folder. Module 1 of the course walks you through the rest, including turning on the two plugins that make the daily-note template work.
Once it is open, start at Home. It is the landing page for the
vault: where everything lives, what the four daily headings are for, and
links to the progress tracker and the Git cheatsheet.
Home is written for reading inside Obsidian, where callouts and
[[links]] render properly. On GitHub it looks like plain text, which is
why this README exists.
Journal/gets one note per working day, created from the template. What you did, what broke, what you learned.Projects/holds one page per thing you're building. It starts with a lab progress tracker; add pages as your lab grows.Resources/is for material you'll reach for again: cheatsheets, error messages and their fixes, links worth keeping. A Git cheatsheet is already in there.Templates/holds note templates.Daily.mdis the one you'll use most.
Write the note while the problem is still open, not after. A note written during the struggle records what you tried and why. A note written after victory records a story, and stories leave out the parts future-you will need.
