Template gallery
Install a ready-made project tracker, CRM, habit tracker, meeting notes, OKRs or reading list into any folder. Nothing is downloaded.
On this page
The template gallery gives you complete starting points: a database note, a few example rows, and where it helps, a note template. Open the template gallery, pick one, and choose the folder to install it into.
What ships
| Template | What you get |
|---|---|
| Project tracker | A Projects database with a board grouped by status and a calendar by due date, plus example projects. |
| CRM | Two databases, Clients and Deals, joined by a relation, so every deal also appears in its client’s backlinks. |
| Habit tracker | One note per day with a checkbox per habit, and a calendar view to see streaks. |
| Meeting notes | A database of meetings and a meeting template with attendees, agenda, decisions and actions. |
| OKRs | Objectives and Key results databases, linked by a relation, with a progress number on each key result. |
| Reading list | A gallery of books with covers, a rating and a status. |
All of the content is written for Scaffold. The examples are invented, so delete them whenever you like.
How installing works
- Generated on your device. Template files are created by the app itself. Nothing is fetched from the internet.
- Nothing is overwritten. If a file with the same name already exists in the folder, the new one gets a number added to its name instead.
- Placeholders are filled in.
{{date}}and{{title}}in a template become today’s date and the note’s title, the same variables as daily notes and templates. - When the install finishes, Scaffold opens the template’s main note, usually its database.
Make it yours
A template is not a locked object. After installing, it is simply notes in a folder:
- Rename properties, add options or new views by editing the
database:frontmatter, or through the database menus. See Databases. - Move the folder anywhere in your vault. Database notes find their rows by folder, so keep the database note and its
rows together, or update
source.folder. - Share a setup by copying the folder. The other person needs nothing but Scaffold, or any text editor.
