Core Plugins (Built-in: No Install Required)
These ship with Obsidian. Enable them in Settings > Core Plugins:
| Plugin | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Bases | Native database-like views for .base files. Powers wiki/meta/dashboard.base. Available since Obsidian v1.9.10 (August 2025). Replaces Dataview for most wiki use cases. |
| Properties | Visual frontmatter editor. Always enabled. |
| Backlinks | Outgoing/incoming links pane. |
| Outline | Document heading navigation. |
Recommended Community Plugins
Install via Settings > Community Plugins > Turn off Restricted Mode > Browse.
| Plugin | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Templater | Auto-populate frontmatter on note creation from _templates/. |
| Obsidian Git | Auto-commit every 15 minutes. Protects against bad writes. |
| Calendar | Right-sidebar calendar with word count, task, and link indicators. Pre-installed in this vault via .obsidian/plugins/calendar/. |
| Thino | Quick memo capture panel in right sidebar. Pre-installed via .obsidian/plugins/thino/. |
| Iconize | Visual folder icons for navigation. |
| Minimal Theme | Best dark theme for dense information display. |
| Dataview (optional/legacy) | Only needed if you're on Obsidian < 1.9.10 or want to use the legacy dashboard.md queries. The primary dashboard now uses Bases. |
Calendar and Thino are pre-installed. They ship with this vault. Enable them in Settings → Community Plugins → toggle on. No download needed.
If installing in a different vault: download main.js + manifest.json from their GitHub releases into .obsidian/plugins/calendar/ and .obsidian/plugins/thino/ respectively.
Optional additions:
- Smart Connections: semantic search across all notes
- QuickAdd: macros for fast note creation
- Folder Notes: click a folder to open an overview note
