Org Roam: The Best Way to Keep a Journal in Emacs

In this video, I'll show you how to use Org Roam's "dailies" feature to keep a journal or daily log in Emacs. We'll cover how to create and review entries both for today, yesterday and tomorrow, and any other specific day. I'll also show you how you can customize the default template for daily entries to add any other information you'd like to capture.
