Delightful for Obsidian

A little delight goes a long way. Too much delight ruins the fun.

Delightful will brighten your day with delights when you complete a task (check any checkbox). You can control which animations to use and how often it randomly happens.

This plugin is based on the original and awesome⁰¹ Delightful browser extension, which works for a range of project management software.

Endnotes

[01]: I don't know why you're questioning this? It just. Is. Awesome. If you don't agree, you obviously haven't tried it and are dismissing it without any legitimate evidence. There is one exception though... you might not think it's awesome because you don't like fun things, and joyous delights like cute animals doing funny things make you angry. If that's the case, I apologise for attempting to convince you of something that you're not capable of understanding, but also, please seek help from a professional. If you become enlightened at some stage and want to give it a try, you're welcome back any time.
