# Methodology Modes — Quick Decision Tree

|

Pick a vault organizational style with `bash bin/setup-mode.sh`.
|

```

## Quick comparison
|
|
|
|
| | Generic | LYT | PARA | Zettelkasten |
|
|
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
|
| Folders | sources/entities/concepts/sessions/ | mocs/notes/ | projects/areas/resources/archives/ | (none — flat) |
|
|
| Navigation | folder browse | link follow via MOCs | folder browse | ID reference |
|
|
| Naming | descriptive | descriptive | descriptive | timestamp prefix |
|
|
| Best for | beginners, mixed use | knowledge clusters | knowledge workers, GTD | researchers, academics |
|
|
| Discipline | low | medium | medium | high |
|
|
|
|
## Per-mode follow-up
|
|
|
|
After setting mode:
|
|
|
|
- **Generic**: nothing further; v1.7 behavior preserved
|
|
- **LYT**: create your first MOC; new ingests update MOCs automatically via wiki-ingest
|
|
- **PARA**: process the `wiki/projects/inbox/` + `wiki/resources/incoming/` buckets periodically
|
|
- **Zettelkasten**: build the parent/child relationship graph as notes accumulate; rely on Obsidian Graph view
