# Digital Garden
A public notebook / digital garden for King's College London's digital humanities department.
Based on [Hypha's digital garden for The Bentway's Digital and/as Public Space Micro-residency](https://digitalgarden.hypha.coop).
## Adding and connecting notes
- [Notes](./_notes) in the Digital Garden are stored in the `./_notes` folder as markdown files (`*.md`) files.
- Connecting notes is done through a double-bracket notation: `[[text to link]]`. View the [The Statement of Intent](./_notes/statement-of-intent.md) note as an example.
- A link without a corresponding markdown file will be highlighted and left unlinked until a file is created.
## Technologies used
