I did try this before, just instead of 'new' I used 'make'. I'll consider this again! Thanks! :)
Yes, that would work, requiring a bit more manual work. Git integration within the tool would make that easier & a tad quicker.
Cool! Will check it out.
Thanks! This will take a minute to figure out, but I'll definitely work on it eventually.
Funnily enough, this WAS the original idea, to have a cli tool that acts as a sort of plugin for Obsidian, to be used when in hurry. I looked for APIs and libraries that could make this possible but couldn't find any. This will be a great circle back :)
Cool! Just took a screenshot, might need this later. Thanks!

Will add a reference to this comment, if I end up using it. :)

Now that I think about it, they can, just not right now. What Jot needs is a 'use existing folder as vault' feature like in Obsidian, or an 'import vaults from Obsidian' feature. As an Obsidian user myself, this would be neat. Thanks for the idea! I'll add this to the feature updates list :)
Sounds great :) Eventually, Jot will have git integration for cross device sync, maybe then, it could serve as a nice addition to your workflow.
Yes :) I do have plans for something similar, but its a bit low on my priority list since I'm keeping this project focused on note management right now.
Obsidian is an absolute dream, I know. I do still use it for college/research projects (basically anything information heavy), but I've found it to be a bit of an overkill in most of my daily use cases <- one of the reason why I am working on this tool.
Jot's purpose is to ease note management, using vaults stored in different parts of your storage, that can be accessed from anywhere, essentially eliminating the need to manually cd to different locations. This is still in its initial phase, hence the rudimentary features (I prioritized everything I considered basic necessities). I am working on adding more fancy features though, for example, a fuzzy finder.
Hey, try the note command to make notes. Example -> https://github.com/araekiel/jot#create-notes-and-folders

And yes, this tool is meant for integration with text editors. Jot is simply for creating and managing notes (markdown files). You can use the text editor that you fancy, like nano or vim, or something like vscode, if you need a GUI.

I don't plan on making jot mobile compatible. Maybe in the future, but not right now.
I do plan on adding vault encryption and cross device sync (literally making a list of updates atm). Like tacostakohashi mentioned, I too have been thinking of using git for cross device sync.
