Uncategorised thoughts, to be added

• Release notes
• Markdown Preview
  • It's possible to customise the markdown preview styling. Maybe make it use local foam workspace styles for live preview of the site??
    • See: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=bierner.markdown-preview-github-styles
• Use VS Code CodeTour for onboarding
• Investigate other similar extensions:
  • Unotes
  • vscode-memo
  • gistpad wiki
• Open in Foam
  • When you want to open a Foam published website in your own VS Code, we could have a "Open in Foam" link that opens the link in VS Code via a url binding (if possible), downloads the github repo locally, and opens it as a Foam workspace.
  • Every Foam could have a different theme even in the editor, so you'll see it like they see it
    • UI and layout design of your workspace can become a thing
• VS Code Notebooks API
  • https://code.visualstudio.com/api/extension-guides/notebook
• Future architecture
  • Could we do publish-related settings as a pre-push git hook, e.g. generating footnote labels
  • Running them on GitHub Actions to edit stuff as it comes in
    • Ideally, we shouldn't have to touch files, should be just markdown
• Looking at the errors/warnings/output panes makes me think, what kind of automated quality tools could we write.
  • Deduplication, finding similarities...
  • Thought Debugger?
  • Knowledge Debugger?
  • Janitor? Gardener?
  • Foam Compiler?
• Should support Netlify deploys out of the box
• Foam should tick at the same frequency as your brain, and the Foam graph you build should match the mental model you have in your head, making navigation effortless.
  • Maps have persistent topologies. As the graph grows, you should be able to visualise where an idea belongs. Maybe a literal map? And island? A DeckGL visualisation?
