What are Kepano Obsidian Bases and how do they work?
Kepano Obsidian Bases enable you to build structured database views within Obsidian using .base files. These files support tables, cards, lists, and maps that display your notes as queryable collections. You define filters to scope which notes appear, add computed formulas for derived properties, and configure multiple views with custom summaries—all through simple YAML configuration.
How do I set up an organized Obsidian vault using base frameworks?
Kepano Obsidian Bases provides starter templates and vault structures that establish a foundation for your knowledge management system. These frameworks guide you in organizing your notes, defining relationships between them, and creating database views that surface the right information at the right time. Start with a base template, customize its YAML configuration to match your workflow, then layer additional views as your vault grows.
What obsidian base templates does Kepano provide?
Kepano Obsidian Bases includes pre-built base templates that serve as starting points for common vault setups. These templates demonstrate best practices for note architecture, filter configuration, and view design. You can use them as-is or adapt them to your specific knowledge management needs, whether you're building a personal wiki, project tracker, or research database.
Can I create custom views and filters in Kepano Obsidian Bases?
Yes. Kepano Obsidian Bases lets you define filters to scope which notes appear in each view and add computed formulas for derived properties. You can configure multiple views with custom summaries within a single .base file, allowing you to display the same underlying notes in different ways—as tables, cards, lists, or maps—depending on your current need.
What knowledge management patterns does Kepano Obsidian Bases support?
Kepano Obsidian Bases supports database and note architecture patterns that help you organize information systematically. The framework enables you to structure notes with relationships, query them across multiple dimensions, and surface insights through computed properties and filtered views. This supports everything from simple note organization to complex knowledge bases with interconnected data.
