## Essays

- [Why my notes and my website live in two separate repos](https://mittaldinesh.com/writing/two-repos): One private vault for everything I think, one site for what I choose to share, and a small script as the only bridge between them.
- [Formatting reference (sample, archive before launch)](https://mittaldinesh.com/writing/formatting-reference): A sample post showing headings, lists, code, tables and quotes, so you can see how each renders. Set its status to archived before launch.

## Notes

- [About these notes](https://mittaldinesh.com/notes/about-these-notes): Notes are short, unpolished and published as they come. Essays are where I take more time.
