 Nope! This time, I've stepped into a new role as a "Cloud Engineer.". It's a bit outside my comfort zone, but, uh, hey, it's still tech-related... right?

 There were so many new terms, names, jargon and concepts that, to be honest, left me feeling pretty confused—and I'm the type of guy that get lost easily.

 So, in this article, I just want to tell you guys how I use [Obsidian.md](https://obsidian.md/) and how this software has helped me big time.
+
+## Obsidian.md Basic
+
+Obsidian calls the storage a **Vault**. A **Vault** is just a folder in your local file system where all your notes are kept.
+
+![Obsidian.md](/img/posts/obsidian1.png){style="max-width:400px;margin:5px auto;"}
+
+After creating a **Vault**, you will be welcomed with a basic template that looks something like this:
+
+![Obsidian first vault created](/img/posts/obsidian2.png){style="margin:5px auto;"}
+
+### Now, How to start using it ?
+
+To answer that, I need to tell you my side of the story since i will be using my use-case as an example. Okay, here it comes:
+
+- I have some personal projects, like this website, that I need to maintain. Drafting an article, development backlog, things i want to try, etc.
+- with this new job in a different role that I'm not used to, I need to keep learning while keeping up on ongoing projects and daily tasks at work.
+- My current company require me to get some certification, I need to keep track of which certifications I need to take and all the study material required to complete them.
+- I'm also planning to enroll in university, since i do not have any formal degree yet.
+- You know that moment when you're just zoning out, and out of nowhere, a cool idea pops up? If only I could keep it somewhere and not forget it in three minutes. Yeah, i need to somewhere to place it too.
