Nitorel: personal knowledge management, written in Turkish
Guides on taking, linking and reusing notes, plus ready-made Obsidian vaults. This page explains in English what the site offers and what you get if you buy a vault.
What is Nitorel?
Nitorel is a Turkish-language site about personal knowledge management (PKM): how to capture what you read, hear and think as notes, link those notes, and find them again when you need them. It is written by Ahmet Canal and its articles are published under CC BY 4.0.
- Articles and series on methods such as PARA, Zettelkasten and GTD, with their strengths and weaknesses.
- A note-app atlas and free tools that run in your browser; what you type isn’t sent to Nitorel.
- Nitorel Originals: the Not Düştüm podcast, the Not Masası YouTube channel, workshops and small apps.
- nitorelkasa: ready-made Obsidian vaults, listed below.

Questions
- Is the content in English?
- Partly. Nitorel's articles, podcast and videos are in Turkish. The free Starter Vault is Turkish as well, including folder names such as 00 Boşalt and 90 Arşiv. Guides, template headings and example notes in the vaults are Turkish. If you don't read Turkish, download the free Starter Vault first and see whether it works for you.
- Which Obsidian version do I need?
- A current Obsidian. Solo System, AI Context System and the Complete Bundle build their dashboards with Obsidian's core Bases feature, which arrived in Obsidian 1.9. None of the vaults needs a community plugin.
- How do I pay and get the files?
- Checkout runs on Paddle, the merchant of record: Paddle charges you, issues the invoice and handles sales tax. Prices are set in Turkish lira; Paddle shows the final amount before you pay. After payment you land on indir.nitorel.com and download the ZIP. Bookmark that page to download again later.
- Can I get a refund?
- Send a refund request within 14 days of payment through paddle.net or by email; Paddle reviews it under its refund policy. If a file won't open or the product isn't what this page describes, write to us and we will sort it out.
- Do my notes go to Nitorel?
- No. The vaults are plain Markdown, .base and local Obsidian settings files. They stay on your computer unless you connect a sync service or an AI tool yourself.
- What does the license allow?
- The license is personal: one person, all of that person's devices. You can deliver the notes you create with the system to your clients; you can't share or resell the product files.
