Everything is talking

Spent the day setting up the foundation. Everything I’ll build next depends on this being solid.

What’s running now

Node and Git checked their versions. GitHub has a private repo with the first push. Claude Code is installed and sees the project. Obsidian is reading from docs/. GitKraken is watching the repository. I can commit and push from the editor, and changes show up on GitHub seconds later.

Why this matters

A good dev workflow isn’t a luxury. It’s the thing that decides whether you finish the project or give up when the third tool won’t talk to the other two.

I’ve spent years opening different windows, copying code between places, losing context. This setup closes those loops. Everything is connected now.

Tomorrow

Actually code the YKS app. Time to turn setup into something that works.
