Obsidian is primarily a note-taking multi-platform tool that uses text Markdown files for speed and flexibility. The official site is https://obsidian.md/.

The Quantum Garden Vault is created and managed in Obsidian and uses Obsidian Sync to sync notes between devices.

Like any software Obsidian takes some time to learn and push to its full capacity.
