# Obsidian Flavored Markdown Skill Create and edit valid Obsidian Flavored Markdown. Obsidian extends CommonMark and GFM with wikilinks, embeds, callouts, properties, comments, and other syntax. This skill covers only Obsidian-specific extensions -- standard Markdown (headings, bold, italic, lists, quotes, code blocks, tables) is assumed knowledge. ## Workflow: Creating an Obsidian Note 1. **Add frontmatter** with properties (title, tags, aliases) at the top of the file. See [PROPERTIES.md](references/PROPERTIES.md) for all property types. 2. **Write content** using standard Markdown for structure, plus Obsidian-specific syntax below. 3. **Link related notes** using wikilinks (`[[Note]]`) for internal vault connections, or standard Markdown links for external URLs. 4. **Embed content** from other notes, images, or PDFs using the `![[embed]]` syntax. See [EMBEDS.md](references/EMBEDS.md) for all embed types. 5. **Add callouts** for highlighted information using `> [!type]` syntax. See [CALLOUTS.md](references/CALLOUTS.md) for all callout types. 6. **Verify** the note renders correctly in Obsidian's reading view. > When choosing between wikilinks and Markdown links: use `[[wikilinks]]` for notes within the vault (Obsidian tracks renames automatically) and `[text](url)` for external URLs only. ## Internal Links (Wikilinks) ```markdown [[Note Name]] Link to note [[Note Name|Display Text]] Custom display text [[Note Name#Heading]] ...
