Define your own types and relations too · Type "book" pops a search that fills the rest; "project" adds start/due to the calendar · Highlight a PDF and quotes collect into a note of the same name, searchable and on the graph · Wiki links, types, relations and PARA form one constellation — more links, brighter star ■ Infinite mindmap canvas (.canvas) · Apple Pencil drawing — turn a sketch into an AI image.
