My Favourite Obsidian Plugins for Research Notes + 2 Bonus Tips
Obsidian is my favourite program for taking notes. Be it for research, general things I learn, summaries from papers, lecture notes and the like. Out of the box, it does so many things really well. But, its real power lies in the vast number of plugins it has. Most of these are user created, and you can even make your own (or hack one together)! In this sea of functionality, these are the top few that I use. Grouped by the type of task for easier lookup.

There are quite a few images/gifs here. So please, give it a little bit to load if you have a slow connection.
