Do you use an online campaign manager? If so, which? I only know of Kanka so far, and am pretty happy with it. Edit to add: Obviously there are self-hosted wikis and other sites you could use, but this is the only purpose-built one I’ve used.

    @Gradually_Adjusting I started out using Nuclino as a combined wiki and project management tool, but the free plan became too small.

    Now I use offline Markdown notes (Zettlr or Gedit), publishing to a personal “wiki” (Docusaurus). For rough drafts I use my ReMarkable.

    However, I’m not much of a GM yet – I’ve done some worldbuilding but only run one one-shot so far. I’m preparing for a full campaign this year, so I’ll make sure to check out Kanka and other recommendations in this discussion!

    I use notion personally. I created a template to track everything under the sun and it works well, and whenever I find something that doesn’t work I can just tweak it.

      I use notion a lot for work and journaling, but seeing your template is a real eye opener. I’m blown away. How did you learn all this?

        Thank you! I’m a systems analyst/developer, so I do similar things for work. That gave me a lot of the backbone to get the data architecture in place. Other than that, just a lot of trial and error to see what works.

        It helps that I use it myself, too. Whenever I find something that feels clunky or out of place, I mess around with it in my personal version until it works, then port it to the public version.
