Enjoyment Work theme for Jekyll

Enjoyment Work is an academic / research-focused theme that provides extensive features for note-taking and personal growth. It is based off of the Digital Garden philosophy, which you can read more about on the demo site

The next step for Enjoyment Work is to properly configure the syntax required to work with Obsidian, a powerful knowledge base that works on top of a local folder of plain text Markdown files. Which would ultimately allow somebody to turn their Obsidian notes into an online blog by simply using the _notes directory.
