Obsidian

Obsidian is the app I use to write these notes.

  • It’s great for personal knowledge management
  • It’s highly customisable with many community styles and extensions.
  • It’s local-first—no waiting for files to load or anything like that
  • It’s all markdown, meaning I can put them into many things that take in markdown files
  • It can be fed into my static site generator to generate this website1
