A Neovim plugin written in Lua for writing and navigating Obsidian markdown vaults directly from the editor. It provides autocompletion for note references and tags, plus commands for managing notes, and can be used standalone without the Obsidian app.

Use cases

• manage obsidian notes from neovim
• autocomplete wiki-links and tags in markdown notes
• create and navigate markdown notes in a vault
• use neovim as a note-taking app
• work with obsidian vault without the obsidian app
• insert templates for new notes in neovim

When to choose

• you live in Neovim and want Obsidian-style markdown note-taking without leaving the editor
• you want fast autocompletion for note links and tags
• you want to complement the Obsidian desktop app with editor-based workflows

When to avoid

• you need Obsidian's graph view, mobile apps, or rich plugin ecosystem
• you don't use Neovim or aren't comfortable with Lua-based plugin configuration
• you want a full replacement for the Obsidian application
