Exercise : Project hub notes and bases

The goal of this task is to automatically collect all cookbook recipes in one project note using file properties.

Step 1: Create a Project Hub Note

• Create a folder called projects
• Inside it, create a project hub note called project_cookbook or something similar
• Add the following basic structure to the note:

# Description
 
- Create a small cookbook using my recipes
 
# Recipes

Step 2: Add a project property to recipes

• Open 2–3 recipe notes
• Add a new property to the note
  • Click on the 3 dots on the top right of the recipe note
  • Find the option “Add file property” (see screenshot below)

• Add a new property called “project” and give it the value “cookbook”. It should look like this:

Important:

• The property name (project) must be the same everywhere
• The value (cookbook) must be spelled exactly the same

Step 3: Collect recipes automatically with Base

• Go back to your project hub note project_cookbook
• In the # Recipes section, insert an empty “Base” block:

```base
```

• After inserting the block, the Base interface will appear automatically
• In the Base interface that will appear, use the “Filter” button
  • Files where project is cookbook
  • It should look like this:

You should now see your recipes listed automatically.

Optional tasks (for the fast ones)

You can do these in any order or skip them and take a break.

Add other properties

• Add another property to recipes (e.g. course, difficulty, …)
• Update the Base view to display this property
  • Use the Properties button in the Base interface
  • Find and select your new property and see it appear in the list
