It has links to the main MOCs in your library along with your most relevant tags. It is an excellent access point because it encourages you to focus on the areas in your life that you’ve deemed as important. A Home note creates stronger, longer-lasting connections, especially as one’s library grows far beyond 1000 notes. It becomes a solution to working with knowledge in a framework that will scale with the user over time. --- ### Questions _What do you want in your Home note?
