Connect ideas with links, tags, and graph view

Use links for strong connections

Wikilinks are ideal when two notes genuinely belong together. They create a direct relationship that Moonstone can surface through backlinks and graph view.

Use tags for soft clusters

Tags are useful when you want to gather notes by topic, project, or stage without committing to a hard hierarchy.

A tag can span many folders and contexts, which makes it useful for recurring themes across your vault.

Use graph view when you need perspective

Graph view is where hidden structure becomes obvious. You can spot dense neighborhoods, isolated notes, and topics that are starting to connect into a larger body of work.

• Search for a note when you know what you need
• Use backlinks when you want local context
• Use graph view when you want strategic context
