Obsidian Workflow

Obsidian is a Markdown-based knowledge management tool that stores all notes as plain .md files on your local machine.

Why Obsidian

Plain text — no vendor lock-in, files are just .md
Local-first — your data stays on your machine
Bidirectional links — wikilinks create a knowledge graph
Graph view — see how your notes connect visually

Exporting to the Digital Garden

Since Obsidian uses plain Markdown with wikilinks, notes can be imported directly into this digital garden The garden parses wikilinks and builds the same graph you see in Obsidian.
