On: Ask HN: As a programmer, How do you take notes while coding?

[vunderba]

I'm making the assumption that "taking notes" is distinct from commenting one's code.

If it's related to a long-term contract, I'll create a company-specific Obsidian vault which I'll later sync to a org-wide Notion database.

If it's personal I usually add any relevant documentation/diagrams to the repo itself under a docs folder.
