Obsidian is knowledge management tool, you can think of it like a personal wiki. So it gives you some different types of elements that you can place inside the Canvas, e.g. notes, PDFs, videos, audio, and even iframe web pages. For example

The .canvas files are a JSON-based file format that we open-sourced under MIT license. Just like everything else in Obsidian, it's still all local files on your device. You can see the spec for .canvas here: https://github.

A couple of years ago I wrote the script for a graphic novel. I would have liked to illustrate it myself (I went to art school after all), but I was too busy running a startup at the time, so I pitched it as a collaboration to about 30 diff

The article is more about user experience than implementation. When you apply an effect in Photoshop you can change all relevant pixels at once. Whereas we don’t have good tools to change all words in a document at once (while retaining the

What do you think about text transformations like the ones described in the essay? Not inpainting but tools that could help “good” writers, like changing narration in a chapter from first person to third person in one step?

I am not 100% sure I understand what you are describing but it sounds easy to fix. If you can share before/after screenshots of issue on the Obsidian forum or in Obsidian Discord, that would help!
