Linking your notes

Create crosslinks between your notes to capture, develop, and organize your ideas in Notes.

Imagine your notes evolving into an extension of your mind. Where your ideas, insights, and concepts seamlessly connect and flourish.

You can now use two-way note linking to connect your ideas and build up your personal knowledge system (or "second brain") in Momentum.

If you're building a second brain or creating a "zettelkasten" system, two-way linking in Momentum Notes allows you to:

Adapt and evolve your ideas. Quickly update links to reflect new discoveries, evolving theories, or shifts in perspective.
Ignite your creativity. Two-way linking nurtures ideas by fostering connections. As thoughts collide, your mind becomes a breeding ground for conceptual cross-pollination and innovation.
Provide structure & context. With two-way linking, you can see how different ideas relate to each other, uncover patterns, and grasp the underlying structure of your knowledge.

Creating a note link

Simply type [[ to create a new linked note or link to an existing note.

You can also highlight text and click the two-way link icon.

The note link popup will appear, where you can choose to create a new linked note or link to an existing note.

Type [[ to bring up the link note controls.
Type the name of the note you would like to create.
Click the "+ New note" row with your new note name inline.
A new linked note is created! You can now click the linked note to go to that note, and the backlink will show below the title.

Type [[ to bring up the link note controls.
As you continue to type, your existing notes matching what you've typed will appear as options to link.
Click the note you'd like to link.

Note: You can also navigate the note link popup using the up and down arrows on your keyboard and hitting enter to confirm.

When you link to a note, a backlink is automatically created on the linked note.

The backlink shows at the top under the title, making it easy to navigate between connections.
