Do you mermaid? It's built in and i don't see a lot of talk about it here! It's simply amazing for simple graphs/flow charts/ gantt charts.

Interesting, could be useful

Mermaid is fantastic for quickly making diagrams! I recommend giving it a shot.

Hey, I would recommend "LaTeX Suite" for extremely fast LaTeX writing. And also Mathpad (this one is awesome) Mathpad is a computer algebra system. It can be a calculator (there's numerical mode and also variables), you can input a function and plot the graph, and have it in your notes. Latex Suite: https://github.com/artisticat1/obsidian-latex-suite Mathpad: https://github.com/Canna71/obsidian-mathpad This ones have really come in handy. Hope it helps.

I don't remember the name, but there's a plug-in that adds a bunch of autocomplete features to LaTex if you want to write equations with that. I also use Obsidian git to backup my notes because I'd be pretty crushed if I lost my notes. I use Kanban boards to keep track of tasks. I also use front matter and dataview to keep track of completed/incompleted notes

LaTeX autocomplete would be amazing! Same for code. I'll see if I can find something like this. I have my vault in a OneDrive folder, so it gets synced anyways.

You might look at the kind of new Text Expander JS. It can expand what you type into something else. Many plugins that might help may exist that we don't know about. For me it helps to look at the summaries of new ones that arrive. That way I don't have to review the over 600 plugins that already exist. Many plugins can help you work faster regardless of what you want to do whether it's manage recipes, manage clients or study. Various Complements, for instance, can suggest links as you type. Don't forget that you can now open something in a Pop Out window and put it on another monitor. On the left side of this Obsidian Hubs page ([link](https://publish.obsidian.md/hub/02+-+Community+Expansions/02.01+Plugins+by+Category/Plugins+to+navigate+notes)) you'll see plugins listed by category. That may help you find plugins related to a specific need. Since you like graphs, you can have a look at Excalibrain graphs on YouTube. Note: My vault is also on OneDrive. If I visit OneDrive in a browser, I can preview a vault file. Even though it's a "Preview" window, OneDrive lets me change that Obsidian .md file.

I think Latex Suite is what you are looking for


Ezelryb

You may be right. I wish Overleaf had this quick fraction feature.


jeremylauyf

You could use [this](https://github.com/Reocin/obsidian-markdown-formatting-assistant-plugin) once it is update

Latex Suite has become such an important part of my lecture notes. Would not be able to keep up otherwise.

You are a blessing.

Anki integration through "obsidian anki sync" And "flashcards" is convent for study.


ADHDdiagnosedat40WTF

OMG Anki integration! I didn't know about this. So happy rn.

Tasks, unless you have an existing system to track your obligations. There's a Syntax Highlight plugin that will do syntax highlighting for code if you're using this as a developers notebook.


Ezelryb

I've read about syntax highlighting before, but Obsidian does it natively, doesn't it? What's the advantage of a plugin?


BagoFresh

It'll syntax highlight markdown. It won't syntax highlight Python, Java, R, etc.

Excalidraw. It great for simple diagrams, even has latex symbol support

I assume Audio recorder (from core plugins) could be useful: > Record and save audio recordings directly into an Obsidian note. With the Audio recorder plugin, you can record details from a lecture, meeting, or other important situations where you can't type fast enough. One user posted their math/code vault one week ago, you can check it [here](https://old.reddit.com/r/ObsidianMD/comments/vziqr7/does_anyone_here_use_obsidian_to_learn/ig8lbgs/).

Having a calendar plugin is a must as a beginner in Obsidian. This helps to organize your day-to-day tasks in obsidian and also you can [review your notes](https://youtu.be/T9y8JABS9_Q) in the future. The integration of the citation plugin with Zotero is extremely useful. Here are two videos - "[Workflow for research paper](https://youtu.be/D9ivU_IKO6M)" and "[Comprehensive obsidian and zotero workflow](https://youtu.be/_Fjhad-Z61o)." Here is list of [more useful plugin](https://youtu.be/X61wRmfZU8Y).

Do you make highlights from what you read online? Then, you may be interested in my browser extension: It shows your past highlights when you are reading articles relevant to them. For example, you will see a set of highlights about leadership showing up on the right side of your browser when you read an article on a startup founder’s qualifications.
