What can I customise?

Review prompts, scoring widgets, section order, layout structure, saved options, custom fields, and many other workflow details inside the Layout Builder and Settings.

Do I need to edit raw markdown templates manually?

No. The Layout Builder is the intended interface for most template changes. You can iterate visually instead of hand-editing a disconnected template file.

Should I customise everything immediately?

Usually no. Start with the built-in workflow, identify what feels wrong in your real journalling process, then make targeted changes instead of overengineering from day one.

Built-in beats downloadable for most traders

If you just want a template, installing a plugin with a complete working review system is usually more durable than copying a one-off vault file that you later need to maintain yourself.

The default templates are designed to be useful on day one, but they are not rigid. You can change prompts, scoring, widgets, and structure after you have lived with the default workflow for a while.
