| | | ## Why Quartz? |
|---|
| | | Hosting a public digital garden isn't easy. There are an overwhelming number of tutorials, resources, and guides for tools like [Notion](https://www.notion.so/), [Roam](https://roamresearch.com/), and [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md/), yet none of them have super easy to use *free* tools to publish that garden to the world. |

| | | I've personally found that |
|---|
| | | 1. It's nice to access notes from anywhere |
|---|
| | | 2. Having a public digital garden invites open conversations |
|---|
| | | 3. It makes keeping personal notes and knowledge *playful and fun* |
|---|
| | | 1. Extremely fast full-text search by pressing `Ctrl` + `k` |
|---|
| | | 2. Customizable and hackable design based on Hugo |
|---|
| | | 3. Automatically generated backlinks, link previews, and local graph |
|---|
| | | 4. Built-in [[notes/CJK + Latex Support (ζ΅θ―) | CJK + Latex Support]] |
|---|
| | | 5. Support for both Markdown Links and Wikilinks |

| | | I was really inspired by [Bianca](https://garden.bianca.digital/) and [Joel](https://joelhooks.com/digital-garden)'s digital gardens and wanted to try making my own. |

| | | **The goal of Quartz is to make hosting your own public digital garden free and simple.** You don't even need your own website. Quartz does all of that for you and gives your own little corner of the internet. |
