A repository containing templates and scripts for #Obsidian to support the #Zettelkasten method for note-taking.## Obsidian
Obsidian is a note-taking and knowledge management app from Shida Li and Erica Xu. It works on top of a local folder of plain text Markdown files and lets you turn a collection of plain text files into a rich network of linked thought.More about: https://obsidian.md
## Zettelkasten
Zettelkasten is a personal tool for thinking and writing created by Niklas Luhmann. It has hypertextual features to make a web of thought possible. The difference to other systems is that you create a web of thoughts instead of notes of arbitrary size and form, and emphasize connection, not a collection.More about: https://www.soenkeahrens.de/en/takesmartnotes
## Usage
Copy templates to your Obsidian template folder location to make them available as templates within Obsidian. More about: https://help.obsidian.md/Plugins/TemplatesOr use it as part of the [Obsidian-Zettelkasten-Starter-Kit](https://github.com/groepl/Obsidian-Zettelkasten-Starter-Kit).
