Obsidian

Obsidian

Obsidian is a notetaking app that lets you link your notes together using Wiki-style links (adding square brackets around words or sentences to link to other notes). It is a cross platform Electron app, meaning it runs on Window, Mac and Linux.

Many of the core features are implemented using plugins, meaning you can enable or disable the functionality you want.

Obsidian also has a large number of Community Plugins, that lets you add functionality for just about anything.

I use it for both work notes, personal notes, and authoring this website, among other things. It has completely replaced my use of Notion, Evernote, OneNote and other similar tools.

You can install Obsidian using winget with:

winget install Obsidian
