In Cheese Bytes, each note is represented by a type of cheese, which indicates its stability and depth.
Note Dimensions
Note Stability
Each type of cheese can appear in two ways:
- Whole cheese: Indicates that the note is stable and unlikely to change significantly.
- Cheese wedge: Indicates that the note is in development and likely to evolve or change.
Note Depth
The depth of a note refers to its level of knowledge development and elaboration. This includes the amount of information it contains, the quality of the connections it establishes with other notes, and the richness of the examples and explanations it offers.
Note depth is categorized into four levels indicated by the type of cheese. Lower levels of depth are associated with fresher cheeses, while higher levels are associated with more aged and complex cheeses. Below you will find a table explaining the different types of cheese and their meanings.
Depth and Stability Reference Table
Whole Cheese | Cheese Wedge | Description |
---|---|---|
![]() | ![]() | White Cheese (Burgos): Very new or simple note, barely a quick note. Little developed and with few links. |
![]() | ![]() | Cheese with Holes (Emmental): Useful note with some development, open to grow. Has some links and basic structure, but still has holes that need to be filled. |
![]() | ![]() | Aged Cheese (Parmesan): Well-worked note, deep and structured. Examples, detailed explanations, and several links. |
![]() | ![]() | Blue Cheese (Cabrales): Advanced note, complex and very connected to other ideas. Deep reflections and difficult topics. Interactive and elaborate examples. |

Size in the Notes Graph
The main page of Cheese Bytes shows a notes graph, where each note is represented by a cheese icon. The size of the icon reflects the connectivity of the note in the graph. The larger the icon, the more connections the note has with other notes. This allows for quick identification of the most important and connected notes in the Cheese Bytes ecosystem.
