Getting Started

Get LogMark running and make your first capture in under a minute.

1. Download and Install

Download LogMark for Windows. Run the installer and follow the prompts. LogMark installs to your user folder and runs from the system tray.

2. Your First Capture

Press Ctrl+PageUp from anywhere. Type your thought. Press Enter. Done.

That's it. Your thought is saved. LogMark returns you to whatever you were doing.

3. Configure Your Vault

On first run, LogMark asks where to store your captures. You have two options:

• Existing Obsidian vault - Point to your vault root. LogMark creates a logmark/ folder inside.
• New folder - Create a dedicated folder for LogMark captures.

Your vault location is stored in %APPDATA%\LogMark\bootstrap.json. You can change it anytime from Settings.

4. Explore Your Vault

Captures are plain markdown files organized by type and route:

5. Entry Format

Each capture is appended to the appropriate file with a timestamp and context:

Next Steps

Now that you're capturing, learn the notation system to add structure:

• Notation Reference - Entry types, routing, and tags
• Commands - Slash commands for navigation and search
• Workflows - Concrete patterns for daily use
