Daily Notes
SteleKit opens today’s daily note automatically at startup. You do not need to create it.
What is the Daily Notes view?
Section titled “What is the Daily Notes view?”The Daily Notes view is a reverse-chronological feed of your journal entries. Each day gets its
own page, stored as a plain Markdown file in the journals/ directory inside your graph folder.
Daily notes are ordinary pages — they appear in search, accept wiki links, and accumulate
backlinks like any other page.
Storage format
Section titled “Storage format”Journal pages live in the journals/ directory:
journals/ 2024_01_15.md 2024_01_16.md 2024_01_17.mdThe filename format is YYYY_MM_DD.md. This is the same format Logseq uses, so your existing
journal history opens without conversion.
