Org-roam is a rudimentary [Roam][roamresearch] replica built around
the all-powerful [Org-mode][org].
Like Roam, Org-roam offers a powerful and effortless non-hierarchical
note-taking approach. With Org-roam, notes flow naturally, making
note-taking fun and easy.
The goal of the project is to implement core features of Roam around
Org-mode, and eventually introduce features enabled by the Emacs
ecosystem.
For more documentation, see [the documentation page](https://org-roam.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).
## Understanding Roam

## Project Status
As of February 2020, it is in a very early stage of development.
## A Preview
Here's a screenshot of `org-roam`. The `org-roam` buffer shows
backlinks for the active org buffer in the left window, as well as the
surrounding content in the backlink file. The backlink database is
built asynchronously in the background, and is not noticeable to the
end user. The graph is generated from the link structure, and can be
used to navigate to the respective files.
