Honestly I would love an hour long video with the most nitty gritty stuff that is the core of what you use and why.
Specific settings, groupings, etc
I second this

Hi there! Creator of Vanilla AMOLED theme here. Just wanted to say thanks for the shoutout! ❤
Be sure to let me know if there's any feedback you want to make about the theme. I'm allways happy to hear back! ^^
Thanks for the great theme!! Definitely my favorite minimal dark theme for Obsidian out there!
@@cyanvoxel My pleasure! ❤️
One of your subscribers brought me here after an email exchange. Will definitely bring more customization options soon(tm) ! ☺️
Hi @SakuraIsayeki I can't seem to find your theme in the plugin list. Was it removed from Obsidian?
@@JvP000 Hi! The theme is still alive and kicking. Just make sure you don’t tick « light themes only » when searching for Vanilla AMOLED :)
@@SakuraIsayeki Thanks for confirming. I must apologise, I was looking in the community plugins rather than Themes, that's why it wasn't showing initially
Came for obsidian, stayed for your great background song choices. Time to play some of these games again.
You can't imagine how dissapointed i was as i clicked on your channel recognizing you only have 5 videos. 😢😢
I didn’t even notice until you said so. DAMN IT. I came from the TagStudio video. I subbed and turned on the bell tho!! Pls more videos
@@snarf8115did the same thing. Downloaded Obsidian and everything based on his stuff.
I want him to do a full hour long dive on his vault
This is art man, could you make a full guide for beginners on how to get started with Obsidian, I would literally pay for it 😂😂
that PARA and Zettelkasten hybrid system is exactly what I needed! thank you so much!
I need to study 100 hours of lessons and take a thousand pages of notes so that I may correctly learn to use my note-taking application
Watching these kind of aesthetic videos just brings me calm
never realized obsidian could look this clean and each different note style so varied. im just getting started w obsidian and know nothing about css but you’ve convinced me to bash my head against a wall until i can somewhat replicate what you’ve got going on.
also after finishing the video i just wanted to say the scriptwriting + editing were top notch. keep up the great work brother.
Being able to customize the themes of notes like this while still keeping everything in simple markdown files is one reason why I love Obsidian so much - And CSS isn’t too bad to pick up, you can get a lot going with just the basics like changing colors and font styling and all that. I’d recommend checking out W3Schools’ CSS tutorials, they’ll get you on your feet in no time!
This was absolutely great to watch. Can’t wait to see what other content you put out!
Thanks for this video man! I started using Obsidian pretty casually about a year ago. This video inspired me to start really upgrading my Vault over the last few days. I’m using your CSS snippet for the sidebar folder colors and I absolutely love it. Awesome stuff.
Thank you so much for making this video!!! I love your design and file sorting system, and it has already helped me with my notes and inspired me to start journaling! This is hands down the best video I have found to walk someone through what I would call a "default" obsidian guide!
Dude this is amazing!
Thank you so much for putting in this much effort! It's people like you that really help communities grow!
This is awesome. Love the colored folder and notebook theme snippets. These are fantastic and so nicely implemented. Thank you for sharing!
Amazing setup and customisation! Very inspiring, thank you :)
... also your scripting and video editing skills are awesome, with perfect voiceover!
I cannot stress this enough. This video is legit perfect it just adheres to the frequency of my entire being or something. I have a lot of similar interests as you editing (after effects mostly). I go to a CS uni and I can’t figure out how to make a good note taking system forever. It seems like all the information just fades in and out of my brain over time.
I’m always thinking about how to optimize/organize everything to the point that I don’t even try to start with it.
One day I’d like to be more like you! Can’t wait for more videos to come!
oh dude i feel you on like a cosmic level
just downloaded obsidian and going crazy with it, this video is amazing dude i feel gallons of motivation rushing through my veins
@@ameyagupta7285 we’ll make it brother. Let’s achieve the coolest of graph views there ever was!
Such high quality videos! Awesome channel :) Keep it up
This is amazing. I suck at CSS, looked at the snippets and they pretty simple yet so effective and pretty. Loved this video, thanks
Your videos are so good, thank you for the in-depth tour!
Amazing content and explanations, soothing and hits that itch in my brain that I've been craving to kickstart my PKM journey.
Please keep up the great work!
Absolutely phenominal video, thanks for sharing!
Wow! Amazing video, and what a BREATH-TAKING vault also! You are my personal hero now!
Thx for sharing. Added a few things to my vault, especially a PARA organization and rainbow custom sidebar.
Awesome awesome video. I was really confused about mixing Zettelkasten and PARA before watching your video. Thanks a lot and I which you all the best for the growth of this channel.
PS: The video production and quality is just 🔥
Thank you for your work. I can now open my Obsidian vault and feel gratified just looking at how gorgeous and perfectly aligned things are. So satisfying to the OCD part of me. :)
I'm new to this 'Obsidian World,' and I'm glad I found this video because it was helpful. It motivates me to improve my vault and make it look better. Thanks for sharing such great content ;)
I have been using obsidian, not as effectively buy your vault I'd so aesthetic pleasing to look at I am so happy you shard the framework of your vault.
i love your videos! I wouldn't mind whatever topic it is, but your editing and voice is mesmerizing. I hope you keep it up!
loved this, you're gonna make it big bro
I did not know that obsidian can look this good! Thanks for this and I'm definitely subscribing! hope to see some of your cool tricks in obsidian in the future!
I loved seeing inside your second-brain. I did download your snippet after the last one, but haven't used it yet. Probably will, especially if I start doing more with my Rocketbook stuff. Thank you.
So awesome! Thank you. I would love a video on how you set up your Maps of Content at some point. Appreciate all the effort you put in here. Super helpful.
This is so overkill in the BEST. WAY. I LOVE IT 😍
Wow, love the style of your vault!
This is simply amazing! Thank you so much for this video.
Ok, now we REALLY want to see the process of creating such aesthetic videos. Subscribed for that.
I never ever comment on CZcams videos but just wanted to say your content is INSANELY good and I'm sharing your videos with friends! Keep up the good work and I cant wait to see more!
Not only is this a gorgeous set up, but also such a great concept for an organization method. I've been feeling genuine anxiety at trying to figure out how to reconcile ZK style organization with my actual needs for a note taking database. I think your PARAKasten may just fix that. An incredible quality of video for so few subscribers btw. Idk what kind of videos you make but you deserve a sub for sure.
Super organization, superb visual styling.
Excellent content. Thank you for sharing.
Great video, great explanation, gorgeous vault.
Unexpected RuneScape making its appearance at 3:33!
Brilliant video, I had not heard of the PARA method before, makes things a lot tidier.
Hope you keep the amazing quality content coming!
Thanks so much!! PARA has definitely helped bring some structure to my vault and files in general, although my Archives are still typically a bit of a mess lol. Also great to see a fellow RuneScape fan!
After having used Evernote and Notion for years, I always had the feeling that they quite weren't doing the job I required them to do. I always had a hybrid approach to note taking, and after seeing your first video about digitizing field notes inside Obsidian, I knew it this tool was what I was looking for. I'm so glad I found your channel, and am grateful that you are sharing such useful tips to make my second brain look so aesthetically pleasing haha! Thanks a lot!
Really nice vid. Thanks for sharing, your idea with the combination of the Zettelkasten and the PARA system really intrigued me, working on something similar for myself right now. And like always the production quality is awesome! Even more so for the inclusion of the ff music. ; )
Dude this was soo cool !!!
There's a plug-in I think you might like. It's called leaflet, and it originally is used to add pins over a fantasy map. You could make cool legends for your graphics! 😊
This video scratches my organisational itch the best way possible! I recognised a lot of formats and processes I use for my own notes.
To be honest, I'm trying to make my vault more simple functionally, I like being able to use only minimal plugins and themes. But even though I know I'm not going to go as far as you, it's really inspiring to see your system!
amazing. purely therapeutic. thanks for sharing
This video has really helped me organize my notes.
wow, i didn't know you could do anything this cool with Obsidian. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much. I ended up using your snippets and rethinking my Zettelkasten.
dude, this vault is crazy. I already love that 😍😍👌👌
Thank you for sharing your Vault. It is AMAZING. I am in the process of building something simmilar for a really big, broad and complicated project I am inmersed into. This project will take some years to be completed and I need to sotore information for the long run.
You gave me a lot of great ideas on how to store information and how some things could be organized.
Thank you for sharing this one.
I initially came here to get inspired by ideas of how Obsidian is used for managing the accumulation of notes, but I end up loving the aesthetics and customization you implemented in Obsidian, as well as your combination of the Zettelkasten and PARA method for organization. Great video!
You’re absolutely insane and I love it so much
Incredible estate Obsidian!
Man... this job it's insane!! Congratulations for your effort and for share with us. I'm studying cybersecurity, in a middle of a hard course and I my notion insists on break de connection. So searching I find obsidian and the links feature. I'm a middle of a change of taking notes method here, and your video it was the bigger help! Thanks!!
I'm gonna try use the vault now and change some things for my purposes.
Absolute gem of a video for someone like me who struggles to organize all their notes, thoughts and documents!
This inspired me to try out obsidian once again. Esp. being ok not having it so optimized at the start, but optimizing as I go.
I love the process of productivity optimizing, it helps me engage into work that I usually put off bc i enjoy the environment I am in and therefore feel more inspired to accomplish.
I had felt a bit off about obsidian and notion at a way as a time sink for productivity but I think it doesn't have to be a constant battle for the best system, just the system that works for you **right now**. I spent a good chunk of time making my terminal feel pretty awesome, maybe it's time for me to chk out obsidian. great video, subbed :D
First time subscribing to a CZcamsr in a while, holy crap this program is amazing! I struggle to keep track of my Projects (Area's I suppose haha!) with flurry's of Google Docs, tabs and applications. Its been a nightmare. I just set up some really basic stuff based on your template (thank you!) such as definitions for all of the categories and I am already in love!
PS:
You should totally make a Discord!! Would love to talk to other creators/have people for Obsidian Support
Dude your videos are awesome, you've a incredible way with customization. If you did a video about the use of CSS in a nutshell for obsidian would be utmost...
Thank you so much!! I'm thinking about doing exactly that for my next Obsidian video, actually!
incredible content. Thank you
this is a very cool video! i really liked it
great system. the video has been useful to me. also appreciating the video creation competence.
Thank you for this great content. :)
Thanks! I love it!
Damn this is freaking awesome
Please make more Obsidian videos. I need to use Obsidian like you do!
This is making me move to Obsidian by the way. Thanks for this clean video overview.
Legit moved to Obsidian and downloaded your templates, thanks. I cam back to this video so I can spell Zettelkasten properly :D
the vault is cleannnn man
Freaking love it! 😂
this was amazing haha
Man, that is incredible!! I could not imagine how far can go with obsidian.
Oh my god, coalescence OST from risk of rain, I freaking like it so unexpected to hear there. Cool video, Keep up the good work ) wish you good luck
I like the crash course on zettle and para, I've wanted to get into both, but this simplified it enough for me to have a proper understanding of.
Zvolt introduced me to the terms but his exmaples go so far in depth (good but overwhelming). Your explaination was super approachable, and i feel like i could free-style a similar system off the bit of context you provided.
Fun video! Loved hearing the FF9 music in there too! Game doesn't get enough love!
This is great! This is fantastic! I love this video so much. Although, a part of me feels guilty to have access to a wonderful, organized and well thought out obsidian vault... Meanwhile you probably had to go through trial and error to get it to be so organized 😕 i hope you keep uploading and i look forward to any future content you post! Obsidian or anything else.
I don't use obsidian i am here just to get ideas on how i can takes. Great video btw.
Daily note colours, mine now 😅
I really like your mix of zettel and PARA, will be stealing that
Whenever I find a nice, clean, straightforward note taking app I find a video of someone going completely overboard with it an thereby ruins it for me. Its super pretty though, for sure.
Damn good stuff.
that's insane, pls make more videos
I really like your combined system! Was wondering how your map of content works and how you use the ID’s i motiver you give each note! Fantastic video 🎉
Oh my god, Risk of Rain OST in the background, a fellow JetBrains Mono enjoyer, you've earned yourself a sub! Definitely going to be trying some of this stuff out on my own Obsidian config. Now I can't wait until the day you hopefully stumble across Neovim and go down that customization rabbit hole lol
As a recent Neovim user myself, it's probably just a matter of time haha!
I've been using Obsidian for years, and my main vault started off with importing years worth of content from my previous notetaking app, Simplenote. I spent some time while I was setting it up organizing things into a rough heirarchy based on how they were tagged in Simplenote and tried to maintain that structure while adding to it, but I've been thinking recently that the entire vault needs a massive re-organization because the current system is becoming incressingly less usedul to me. This video may well prove to be an excellent jumping-off point for when I start that rework.
how did you do the thing where it shows the properties at the start of the note?
madness
good bro
how do you get the properties section up there with the containerized css class picker?
Muito obrigada!
How do you import your field note images with the paper being transparent.
I'd love to see a more detailed organization video and especially how you organize your map of content
Man, the 80s song theme is perfect
What is the name of the icon pack that you use for the sidebar icons? Is it included with the JetBrains font?
These icons aren't a part of the font, they're a part of the Iconize plugin. I'm using the "boxicons" pack which is built-in to that
YOUR VOICE. and thanks for this, I could use some of this cool stuff!
i would love to be able to see how you study japanese in obsidian! such a cool vault!!
Thank you, as support I subscribe to this channel.
I'm still confused about part 00 - Map of Content. Actually, what will it contain?
This is incredible! I love the look of the notes so much, was so not ready to leave handwritten notes but couldn't resist obsidian. TY! Also, did you get the same error as me where Iconize just doesn't show the icons? They're still assigned, or so it seems by the options, but I'm not seeing anything
Thanks so much! And sorry, I've never gotten that error before... Maybe you need to make sure that the boxicons pack is downloaded in the settings? If it's already there, then I suppose try seeing if deleting and re-adding an icon rule will fix it.
I love your snippets!
Is there a way to also use the colored sidebar feature on subfolders?
