Creation Ledger

Creation Ledger is a simple way to capture what you're working on, track progress, and quickly remember where to pick things up again — using plain Obsidian notes.

Who It's For

Creation Ledger is designed for people who:

• Work on multiple ideas or projects
• Frequently stop and restart work
• Want lightweight structure without turning notes into a rigid task system

Installation

Method A: Install from Obsidian Community Plugins

1. Open Obsidian Settings
2. Go to Community Plugins
3. Search for "Creation Ledger"
4. Install and enable

2. Unzip the folder.

3. Rename the folder to: creation-ledger

4. Move the folder into: <your-vault>/.obsidian/plugins/

Enable Creation Ledger

Quick Start

1. Open the Command Palette (Cmd/Ctrl + P) and run "Creation Ledger: Capture Activity"

2. Fill in the form with a title and status (project and tags are optional)

3. Click Create — your note is saved automatically in the CreationLedger/ folder

That's it! Your activities are now being tracked as regular Markdown notes in your vault.

Optional: Install Dataview to use dashboards and the Kanban board. Activity capture works without it.
