Much of what the author does manually can be automated even further. For example, the whole "Working with Embeds" section could be replaced with a DataView query.

I use DataView extensively to great effect. For example, every "Project" note uses the same template, which includes a #Project tag and a Status:: value containing a red, yellow, or green square emoji.

Then a simple query like:

```dataview TABLE Status FROM #Projects SORT file.mtime ASC ```

Gives you a very nice looking, automatically sorted and up to date Project status table.
