## What it is
An Obsidian community plugin that enhances working with nested lists, bringing Workflowy- and RoamResearch-style outlining to Obsidian. It adds hotkeys and commands for moving, indenting, and restructuring lists with their sublists, plus optional improved list styling.

## Use cases
- move list items with sublists in obsidian without breaking structure
- get workflowy-style outlining in obsidian
- indent and outdent whole lists with keyboard shortcuts
- improve the visual style of obsidian bullet lists
- reorganize deeply nested outlines quickly
- use outliner hotkeys on obsidian mobile

## When to choose
- you use Obsidian and do heavy outlining or nested bullet lists
- you want Roam/Workflowy-like list manipulation inside Obsidian
- you need keyboard-driven list restructuring including on mobile

## When to avoid
- you don't use Obsidian
- you only write flat documents without nested lists
- you rely on custom themes, since the enhanced styles only fit the default theme
