MdBook – Create book from Markdown files. Like Gitbook but implemented in Rust
Found: https://github.com/zoni/obsidian-export but hope this can be part of a single solution.

Using Github to write my notes has helped me retain knowledge immensely.
I use this obsidian-export CLI program to convert prior to pushing to my repo and it's been working pretty well. This gives me a read-only version of my notes that is accessible from devices I don't have obsidian on (work laptop, for example).
- Export all notes at once and convert wikilinks to Markdown?

Personal knowledge base: Any tool/software suggestions?
If you limit your use of third party plugins, you can always use https://github.com/zoni/obsidian-export for this as well. I originally built it for exactly this use case (but now also use it as a crucial step in my pipeline to publish content to my own website)

D&D template?
I have similar folders to [Oudwin](https://www.reddit.com/user/Oudwin/)... - dm - _inbox - assets - checklist - communications - research-reference - elements - sessions Additionally, I have had reasonable success using [obsidian-export](https://github.com/zoni/obsidian-export) to export my Obsidian vault to CommonMark. From there you have more options. I then build html pages using [mdbook](https://rust-lang.github.io/mdBook/) to control the information that is revealed to players. I am playing with using [MkDocs](https://www.mkdocs.org/) to see if it offers more control/flexibility. Regardless, the /elements folder contains all the lore chunks of the world including information I keep on the PCs. The /communications and /sessions folders can contain info with links to /elements that are revealed as needed. I make heavy use of transclusion ![[CoolThingFormAnotherFolder]] to keep it a bit more elegant and some custom styles are needed to make it how it look how I wish.

Export Vault/Notes to a standalone wiki html?
I have had reasonable success using obsidian-export to export a vault to CommonMark. From there you have more options. I am using it for world-building in D&D and I then build html pages using mdbook to control the information that is revealed to players.

New User - Should I stay with pure markdown or use Obsidian extra commands/syntax?
Shameless plug: obsidian-export. It will convert [[WikiLinks]] and ![[Embeds]] to plain Markdown (among a few other things) so you'll always have a way to go back if Obsidian doesn't work out the way you hoped.

What Settings to Use to Make Notes Created in Obsidian the Most Universally Compatible
So really you can't get what you want at all. You could try an external tool like this to export your notes to commonmark which is more widely supported. Ultimately if you are changing the path to files outside of obsidian (meaning they won't be automatically updated) you will break links. So maybe your best bet is to use wikilinks + an export tool.

Hacking with mdBook
A few days back, I wrote a blog post about static site generators, in particular how I decided to migrate my blog from Zola to Hugo. One of my points was to be able to hack my own content before generating the final HTML.

Why I am Migrating From Zola Back to Hugo
This post is a summary of my recent decision to go back to Hugo after using Zola. I also report on how LLM assistants with Web access can aid in such decisions, not as an authority but as a research assistant.

Add Pagefind Search to Hugo
Every PKMS/BASB needs a search functionality. Ever since I've created brainfck to host my own collection of thoughts/ideas/resources (aka Zettelkasten) I wanted to be able to actually search within my collection of org-roam based notes. Meanwhile for all my sites I own (this blog, my CV/portfolio, brainfck and defersec) I use hugo. All of them didn't have proper search capabilities. That's why I was looking for a proper way to include search functionalities without any major effort.

Setup a blog with Hugo and Github Pages
It was long my desire to write a blog with stuff that interests me. Lately i was studying Golang and i came across Hugo which is a really nice and fast site generation utility. This was a great opportunity to start my own blog by using Hugo and Github Pages in order to host it. Why?
