Quick Start

Getting Started · Guide · Reference

1. Initialize a Journal Project

jerd init

By default, this creates a jerd directory under your current directory and walks you through project setup. Enter your name when prompted; Jerd writes it to jerd.config.json.

To choose another project directory:

jerd init my-journal

2. Move Into the Project

cd jerd

If you initialized a custom directory, move into that directory instead.

3. Write Today's Entry

jerd new

Jerd asks for a mood, opens your editor, and saves the result as a Markdown file for today's date.

To skip the mood prompt, pass one directly:

jerd new --mood calm

4. Use the Home Screen

Run Jerd with no command from an initialized project:

jerd

The home screen provides these shortcuts:

  • w opens mood check-in, then starts writing.
  • f opens search.
  • c opens the current month calendar.
  • m opens the mood graph.
