When creating a new project, a project folder is created in Documents/Daytalog/Projects, containing all logs, settings, and templates for the project. In the project folder, you should have:
File/FolderDescription
config.yamlProject settings
logs/Logs (.dayta)
templates/Templates and assets for the project

How to share a project

Copy the project folder. Make sure all settings you want to share are set within the project scope and that the project contains the templates and assets used by presets.

Manual text file editing

The easiest way to edit the files is to use the app’s UI. However, you can also edit the files manually.
Both .dayta and config.yaml use the YAML syntax.
  • Use spaces, not tabs: Indentation must be done with spaces; tabs are not allowed. Use 2 spaces per level for nesting.
  • Lists use dashes: Represent array entries with a dash followed by a space (e.g., - item1).
  • Use a colon followed by a space to separate keys and values (e.g., key: value).
See schema documentation for the full schema.
