And that 'little' extends to the Org syntax: there is no need to know
all of it, or even a large part of it, since basic use just requires
something like:
* Heading level one
Text
** Heading level two
Text
* Another heading level one
** TODO do some stuff
Itʼs only when you start wanting to change org's default behaviour, or
generate a custom agenda, or schedule TODO items, or track task time
usage etc, that you need to learn more.
