Overview
Folder Notes is a plugin for the note-taking app Obsidian that allows you to attach notes directly to folders. This lets you open a note by clicking on a folder name—similar to the functionality found in Notion.
Unlike other “folder note” plugins, Folder Notes offers several unique features, including support for custom file types, templating, and advanced folder handling options.
Get started
Read the Getting started page for further details and the pages under the "Features" category explain every feature in detail.
Features
- Open folder notes by clicking folder names in the file explorer or path
- Optional modifier key (Alt or Ctrl + click) to open folder notes
