Kanban-style board with drag-and-drop cards between columns. Group notes by any property.

Gantt View

Timeline visualization with draggable and resizable task bars. Group tasks by any property.

Calendar View

Month, Week, and Day views with multi-day events, drag-and-drop, and hourly scheduling.

Common Features

• Click to open notes, hover preview
• Drag-and-drop to reschedule
• Resize events/tasks by dragging edges
• All changes persist to YAML frontmatter

Requirements

• Obsidian 1.10.0+ (for Bases API)

Release Process

Releases are automated via GitHub Actions. When a tag is pushed, the workflow builds the plugin and creates a GitHub Release with all necessary files.

Creating a Release

1. Update version in manifest.json, package.json, and versions.json
2. Build the project: npm run build
3. Commit changes: git commit -am "Bump version to X.Y.Z"
4. Create tag: git tag X.Y.Z
5. Push with tag: git push origin master --tags

GitHub Actions will automatically:

• Build the plugin
• Create a release with the tag name
• Attach main.js, manifest.json, and main.css

Version Requirements

• Use semantic versioning: X.Y.Z (e.g., 0.2.1)
• Tag must match version in manifest.json exactly
• No v prefix (use 0.2.1, not v0.2.1)
