Obsidian Flavored Markdown
Write valid Obsidian markdown, not just generic CommonMark.
Use These Features
- Wikilinks:
[[Note Name]]
- Aliased links:
[[Note Name|Display Text]]
- Heading links:
[[Note Name#Heading]]
- Embeds:
![[Note Name]], ![[image.png|300]]
- Callouts:
> [!note]
- Highlights:
==important==
- Hidden comments:
%% hidden %%
Frontmatter Pattern
---
title: My Note
tags:
- project
aliases:
- Alternate Name
cssclasses:
- custom-class
---
Workflow
- Add frontmatter first.
- Structure with standard markdown headings and lists.
- Use wikilinks for internal vault references.
- Use markdown links only for external URLs.
- Add embeds and callouts where they improve navigation or readability.
Examples
[[Note Name]]
[[Note Name|Display Text]]
[[Note Name#Heading]]
![[Architecture Diagram.png|600]]
> [!warning] Key Risk
> This section needs review.
Block References
Append a block ID to a paragraph when you need stable deep links:
This paragraph can be linked directly. ^my-block-id
Guidance
- Prefer
[[wikilinks]] for anything inside the vault.
- Keep tags in either frontmatter or inline form like
#project/active.
- Verify the note will render cleanly in Obsidian reading view.
