It's a dead simple VSCode extension based on Cal Newport's idea of a single text file productivity system.

Capture everything in a single markdown or text file. Specify the file and use shortcut to open it in new tab from any VSCode project/workspace.

Also, there's a quick capture option to append line to the top of the file without opening it.

That's it, nothing much. I have few simple ideas on how to extend this workflow without making, so any feedback or contribution is welcome.

Here's Cal Newport explaining the gist of the idea:
