I've toyed a few times with using [Obsidian Publish](https://obsidian.md/publish) to share some of those notes publicly, but I wasn't sure I'd get enough benefit from that to justify the $8/mo subscription *just* for Publish. + +Plus I'd rather host on a system I control. + +Well yesterday I stumbled across Quartz: + +> Quartz is a fast, batteries-included static-site generator that transforms Markdown content into fully functional websites. + +Hugo, Jekyll, and 11ty are also SSGs which convert Markdown files into functional websites, but Quartz is optimized for the [digital garden](https://jzhao.xyz/posts/networked-thought)approach of less-polished posts which can grow and connect together organically. It's a great way to collect (and share) bits of knowledge, and a great complement to how I already work with Obsidian. + +So I decided to give Quartz a try, and I'm quite impressed with it so far.
