Any notes online you think are so perfectly written you’d put them into your markdown note vault without changing a thing?

Please share a link here, can be from any subject or knowledge area. Like a summary notes for some math topic, or an analysis for a book.

For instance, I love this Git notes article the diagrams are very well drawn, and I've saved it in my notes.

Too many to pick.

I copy tons of stuff into note taking apps daily. I don't have the time to re-write mosy stuff, except recipes.

These are my local, searchable tools. Most I may do is file them appropriately or add something to make search more effective.

Is there one special you found particularly useful and well written?

No because just copy-pasting, or god forbid gEnErAtInG notes defeats the purpose of the note. Reading an existing note is secondary to having written it in the first place, because by writing it I can think about the topic and process different lines of thinking which may spawn other threads of interest or related issues.

Your example of git is one where I would particularly benefit because I could write about how git is structured or how a particular command works using the docs as reference and then find a difference between my understanding and the docs that I wouldn't have found by reading just the docs or just my notes. This isn't theoretical, it's happened to me every time I've started writing something on a topic.

"Any notes online you think are so perfectly written you’d put them into your markdown note vault without changing a thing?" is just an expression. Of course writing it ourselves would be much rewarding. I'm simply interested in finding well-written notes by others.

Super late to this, but what's your purpose for that?

Is it just to see how others are formatting? Or maybe the level of detail some people go into with their notes?
