## Foam tips
_For up-to-date tips, see [Foam Recipes](https://foambubble.github.io/foam/recipes)._
## Structuring content
**Foam** is a tool that supports creating relationships between thoughts and information to help you think better.
Whether you want to build a [Second Brain](https://www.buildingasecondbrain.com/) or a [Zettelkasten](https://zettelkasten.de/posts/overview/), or you want to [GTD](https://gettingthingsdone.com/what-is-gtd/) or just go with the flow, **Foam** can help you organise your thoughts if you follow these simple rules:
1. Consider this **Foam** a workspace for all your knowledge and research.
2. Write your thoughts in markdown documents (I like to call them **Bubbles**, but that might be more than a little twee). These documents should be atomic: Put things that belong together into a single document, and limit its content to that single topic. ([source](https://zettelkasten.de/posts/overview/#principles))
3. Use Foam's shortcuts and autocompletions to link your thoughts together with Markdown links, and navigate between to explore your knowledge graph.
## Publishing
New Foams are not published by default. To publish your Foam, go to [repository settings](settings) and enable GitHub Pages on the default branch.
If you don't like GitHub pages, you're free to set up any other deployment mechanism of your choosing.
