This vault is real: every note in the demo ships with the site as an actual .md file.
~/vault/clients/hana-studio.md
Your notes, linked .
Write [[Hana Studio]] once and the client note starts collecting its own context. Every mention, every task, every lesson the AI wrote down, gathered under one name.
Obsidian made you love backlinks. Kempt makes them load-bearing: the linked mentions under a note are the exact context your next plan is built from.

Tuesday
Client day. The Hana Studio invoice is set for the 25th: they pay net-30, so that is the day it goes out.
Still need a booth time for the School festival, and the side-project launch page is close.
Last night's braindump is already real tasks, each its own file in Today. This note just keeps the context.
~/vault
Every life, one graph.
Freelance, family, and side project link into one map, each cluster colored by the life it belongs to. Kempt draws it from your own links.
One file. Any app.
tuesday.md is not rows in someone's database. It is plain Markdown on your disk, and it opens unchanged in Obsidian, in VS Code, in whatever you install in 2036.
