README
Breadcrumbs is an Obsidian plugin that lets you add _typed links_ to your notes, then view/traverse them in various ways. Internally, Breadcrumbs uses a graph to represent this structure (much like the regular Obsidian graph, except now, links have _types_ to them). You tell Breadcrumbs about the structure of your notes, then it lets you visualise and navigate the graph.
## Documentation
Breadcrumbs has its own docs site!✨ All detailed documentation lives there: https://breadcrumbs-docs.michaelpporter.com
