Best practices

  • Keep it simple: Start with a few essential tags and expand gradually
  • Be consistent: Use the same tag names and structure across similar items
  • Regular cleanup: Periodically review and consolidate redundant or unused tags
  • Color coding: Use different colors for tag types to quickly identify them visually
