At the beginning of this week, Protesilaos released version 3.0 of Denote with a set of new features that should be useful for your note-taking workflow customizations. He also published the first release of a new package called consult-denote which integrates Denote with the Consult package to make certain tasks easier.

Today we’re going to try out both of these packages to see if there are new workflow tricks we can use in our own configurations!
