Is Logseq DB stable enough for migration?

Logseq DB is currently in alpha; this skill helps you assess risks, perform comprehensive backups, and manage potential data issues during the transition.

How do tags change during the migration to DB?

In the DB version, tags can be converted into 'Classes' which support inherited properties and more complex schemas compared to simple Markdown-based page references.

What is the primary benefit of migrating from MD to DB?

The DB version offers significantly better performance for large graphs, typed properties (dates, numbers), real-time sync, and a more robust querying engine.

Will my existing Datalog queries still work in the DB version?

Many attributes have changed (e.g., :block/content is now :block/title). This skill provides a mapping table and specific query updates to ensure your reporting continues to function.
