✨ Features Overview
JaRoet PKM is packed with features designed to help you think, write, and organize without friction.
🧠 Topological Linking
Instead of folders, notes are organized by their relationships. This allows you to build a web of knowledge that reflects how you think. The main interface shows you the local “topology” of any given note:
- Parents: Higher-level concepts.
- Children: Details and sub-notes.
- Siblings: Related notes sharing the same parent.
- Related: Lateral connections.
