create-project

These are the core files I use in my creation of projects workflow, very specific to the tools and operating systems I use on my laptop and phone (Linux Debian and Android operating systems, with Obsidian/Syncthing/Helix/Automate setups).

I apply the agnostic GTD and PARA methodologies to this project.

What happens

On Linux, in the terminal, you are prompted for a project name, then it opens the Project Initiation Document template (+example-project.md) with the cursor at the "Objectives" section, ready to write what the project is about. A project folder has been created in the YYYYMMDD-lower-case-project-slug-name format.

On Android, when opening the home screen shortcut, you'll be prompt with project name and project description, which will be used to create the project directory and update the PID. It will then open the PID.md in Obsidian with that data pre-populated.

If you have syncthing set up correctly, folders will be created in the same spot if you do these steps on either Linux or Android.

Notes

I don't anticipate anyone actually following this setup, but it may give some ideas on what can be done.

The PID-example.md is the actual Project Initiation Document I used for this project. It contains a bit more info.

These are my unedited working files so if you actually intend on using them, you'll need to make changes to suit your file and folder structuring.
