This page is a short guide to Insight Vault’s main sections and entry points.

Entry Points

  • Vault Philosophy: the standard behind the vault: easy to understand, hard to confuse.
  • MOCs: topic maps for entering learning questions and seeing how nearby documents relate.
  • Essays: finished writing reviewed and accepted by the author.
  • Artifacts: useful material that may still be rough, partial, or supporting.

Key Relationships

MOCs are entry maps, not subfolders of essays or artifacts. A MOC may point across essays, artifacts, and notes when that helps a reader choose where to start.

Essays and artifacts differ by acceptance state, not by topic. An essay is finished writing the author has accepted. An artifact can still be valuable while it remains a source note, draft, checklist, example, or supporting explanation.

The vault philosophy names the standard. This map shows how that standard appears in the public navigation.
