Show HN: VSCode Working Memory – Capture everything in a single text file

3 pointsby atomashevicover 2 years ago
It&#x27;s a dead simple VSCode extension based on Cal Newport&#x27;s idea of a single text file productivity system.<p>Capture everything in a single markdown or text file. Specify the file and use shortcut to open it in new tab from any VSCode project&#x2F;workspace.<p>Also, there&#x27;s a quick capture option to append line to the top of the file without opening it.<p>That&#x27;s it, nothing much. I have few simple ideas on how to extend this workflow without making, so any feedback or contribution is welcome.<p>Here&#x27;s Cal Newport explaining the gist of the idea:<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=3-MOxvedJXM&amp;ab_channel=CalNewport" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=3-MOxvedJXM&amp;ab_channel=CalNew...</a>
