Daily Journal

The "Daily Journal" extension for Visual Studio Code automates the creation of daily journal files, helping to streamline your note-taking and documentation process directly within your coding environment. With a simple keyboard shortcut, start jotting down your thoughts, notes, or todos into a markdown file named with today's date.

Features

  • Automated Journal Creation: Simply press CTRL+SHIFT+I (or CMD+SHIFT+I on macOS) to create or open today's journal file.
  • Intelligent File Management: If today's journal file doesn't exist, the extension creates it in the kb/notes directory of your current workspace. If a journal for the day already exists, it simply opens the existing file.
  • Content Duplication: Upon creating a new journal file, the extension automatically populates it with the content from the most recent journal file. This is perfect for maintaining continuity in your daily notes.

This extension has no dependencies outside of Visual Studio Code itself. Ensure you have the latest version of VSCode installed to avoid any compatibility issues.
