Possible synergy with org-linker project

[novoid]

Hi, I just wanted to point you to https://github.com/toshism/org-linker which has some overlap (I don't know how much) with your project here but without the goal of providing any Zettelkasten-like solution.

I'm not using org-z but I'm using org-linker (and also https://github.com/toshism/org-linker-edna ) in order to get a poor-man's-Zettelkasten solution for myself: https://karl-voit.at/2020/07/22/org-super-links

org-linker has the advantage that back-links are created automatically. Therefore, Bi-directional links that can be followed easily can be created.

So maybe this brings you new ideas and potential benefits.

Thanks for the note! I had seen org-super-link when I was thinking about backlinks, but ended up using org-sidebar for my poor-man's-Zettelkasten, which computes backlinks on the fly. But yes, I do think it would be good to have explicit backlinks in the actual org file. I'll do some further investigation of org-linker.

I hadn't heard of org-edna before — just curious, how do org-linker-edna and org-edna figure into your workflow?

With org-edna, I'm able to define dependencies between tasks which I use frequently. For project management, I wrote this: https://karl-voit.at/2020/08/14/project-mgt-draft/

second here for implementation of org-linker-edna functionality into org-z. Org-z with its backlinks viewing feature doesn't beat org-super-links package for a while. Org-super-links is able to create backlinks automatically. Which is step forward. But org-z doesn't attach to helm only (elephant) hard dependency as org-super-links/org-linker-edna do. Org-link-edna automates tedious manual job to creating dependencies between todo headings through the package org-edna for advanced todos management. it would be cool to include org-linker-edna features into updated org-z with good done selectrum support.
