Hello, Product Hunt! It’s Nick, back here again! 👋 9 months ago, we launched Obsidian Flight School on Product Hunt and were lucky enough to be the #4 Product of the day! Today, I’d like to share with you an exciting free product: The LYT Kit. LYT is an acronym for Linking Your Thinking. It is pronounced "LIGHT KIT". I created the LYT Kit to better demonstrate many fundamentals of “Personal Knowledge Management” (PKM) in a space where others can both learn and practice in to see what works best for YOU. You will see how you can grow your own IDEAVERSE—a well-connected thinking environment that is 100% yours. 🤦‍♂️ Problem Building a system to both find—and develop—your ideas shouldn’t feel impossible. When you open Obsidian for the first time, that blank note, while filled with possibilities, can feel intimidating. The beauty of an app like Obsidian is that you can adapt it to your needs and goals, but sometimes it can be hard to know your best path forward. Reading about PKM concepts online is different than seeing them applied first-hand. The LYT Kit is a space to learn about—and explore—several approaches to managing your ideas. 🙌 Solution Play in a sandbox of linked notes. Explore the links, experiment with the existing examples, and learn how to use linked notes by doing it yourself! 🧭 Explore examples of workflows and learn new concepts at your own pace. ⚡️ Adapt what works best for you into your own vault, and get your own system off the ground quickly. 🪐 Begin to build your IDEAVERSE: a well-connected thinking environment that is 100% yours. 🧢 Included as a bonus is an email course that takes you through PKM and LYT concepts. It blends brief videos with next actions, similar to Obsidian Flight School, that will help you master the material by getting in the reps. 🏋️‍♂️ Understand *Efforts* and why ideas can develop much more naturally in an effort instead of a project. 🗂+🔗 Learn more about the newly updated ACCESS folder structure: a PKM solution designed to merge folders and links into a holistic system. 🪣 Use the LYT Kit as a sandbox to test things out. Making big changes, especially structural changes, to your personal vault can be scary. No one wants to lose notes. Practice tiny tests in the LYT Kit before applying them yourself. 🍰 The LYT Kit is a slice of my *actual* ideaverse. 🗺️ The LYT Kit isn’t a singular path forward. It’s nearly 300 notes filled with both knowledge, examples, and workflows to help you design and organize everything from capturing source material to connecting and developing your next big idea. Most of these approaches work well for me, but we all process things differently. Find what works best for *you* in the LYT Kit and adapt it into PKM system. 💯 The LYT Kit has been downloaded over 35,000 times and is without a doubt the world's most downloaded starter kit for linked notes. 💸 The LYT Kit has and will continue to be a free product. I want everyone to have access to these fundamentals and examples and make it their own! Explore these notes and workflows to find what works best for you. 🎯 Similar to Obsidian Flight School, my goal with the LYT Kit is that it inspires other teachers in online education to incorporate the paradigm of *Lean Forward Learning* into their own educational products and services. I believe online programs designed like Flight School and the LYT Kit are just the beginning of a deeper level of digital learning. Sitting back and passively watching instructional videos is easy, but the results are far less powerful. 📽 If you want to check out the first lesson before starting the email course, you can check it out here: https://youtu.be/rEIiIdyhp88 🗣 It’s great to be back and I can't wait to get your feedback today. Ask away and I'll do my best to answer!

@nickmilo Congrats on the launch 🚀

@nickmilo Congrats on the launch 🚀🚀🚀🚀

@sbadaoui Thanks Said, I hope you enjoy the kit!

@fares_aktouf Thanks Fares, I appreciate your support!

@nickmilo Very cool. Thanks for your work!

Even if you don't end up using Milo's structure in the final version of your PKM setup, exploring the way he organizes and interconnects knowledge is incredibly helpful; there's nothing better than a good example to help you understand what's possible and give you ideas for how to customize your own system. The LYT kit is one of the best ways I know for someone to fully understand Obsidian's far-reaching capabilities for organization and PKM.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this, @paulette_j ! Long before joining the LYT team, I felt the same way when I first encountered the LYT Kit too - I was quite overwhelmed in Obsidian at first while looking at the blank page. You can accomplish almost anything in the in the app, but where to start? Nick's great examples really helped take me through the ideas and inspiration to customize my own setup and I'm glad they've helped you as well.

@paulette_j We can learn well from examples; glad this one helped Paulette; thanks for sharing!

I keep expecting Nick’s PKM work to hit its limits, for new products to be just tiny improvements on the ones before. But that doesn’t happen. Every iteration improves significantly on its predecessor. Nick is a guy who pays attention to the tiniest detail, to nuance, and his efforts make our PKM development so much more meaningful and easier to employ.

@karen_hume Hi Karen, it's great to hear from you - especially kind words like these. 🙏🏻 You really hit the nail on the head. Each choice - from the metadata layout to the phrasing of some of the definitions was all carefully decided to make this easier to navigate, understand, and build off of in their own PKM space.

@karen_hume Thank you Karen; I always appreciate hearing what you think about these things!
