How It Works

Life Journal writes to daily markdown files in your vault (e.g., Daily/2026-05-22.md). Each entry is timestamped and organized under section headings:

# 🌿 心情

- 22:30 😄 开心 — Had a great day today!

# 📝 记录

- 22:35 Finished the Life Journal plugin

# 💭 想法

- 22:40 What if I could track habits too?

# 🗓 计划

**22:45 计划**
- [ ] Finish documentation 📅 2026-05-23
- [x] Write plugin code

All data lives in your vault — no cloud, no lock-in.
