Explicit Edge Builders

The edge builders add edges to the Breadcrumbs graph using the various sources of structure that already exist in your notes/vault. Some are relatively manual, like Typed Links, while others are more flexible and automated, like Date Notes.

[!TIP] Any edge added by one of these edge builders is referred to as “explicit”, because it came from existing structure in your vault (e.g. tags, folders, links, dates, etc.). In contrast, “implied” edges are not explicitly defined in your notes’ metadata, but can be deduced from your explicit edges, based on the Transitive Implied Relations rules you’ve added in your settings

The different edge builders include:

• Typed Links
• Tag Notes
• Regex Notes
• List Notes
• Dendron Notes
• Johnny Decimal Notes
• Dataview Notes
• Date Notes
• Folder Notes
