Three things went better than planned, and one went worse. Here is what I would keep.
v3 ·
Formatting
A note's body is Markdown. Each style below shows what to write and how a note page draws it.

Paragraphs and line breaks
In the editor: Enter starts a new paragraph; Shift+Enter starts a new line in the same one.
A single line break is kept as a line break.

Links
In the editor: Link.
Addresses starting with http://, https:// or www., and email addresses, become links by themselves.
[An example](https://example.com), www.example.com and hello@example.com
Tables
In the editor: Insert → Table.
A cell holds words and inline styles only: no lists, code blocks or pictures.

Images
In the editor: Insert → Upload image, Insert → Image Library.
Only pictures you uploaded are shown. A picture from anywhere else shows like this until you upload your own copy.
Image unavailableA sunset over the bayImages from other sites don't show here. Upload your own copy in the editor.
Everything else
Anything not listed here shows as the characters you typed.
==highlight==, $x^2$, H~2~O, [^1] and <u>underline</u>
==highlight==, $x^2$, H~2~O, [^1] and <u>underline</u>
From elsewhere
What comes in when you paste or import from Obsidian, an AI answer or a web page.
Wiki links
Links between Obsidian notes become their words.
See [[Weekly review]] and [[2026-09-28|last Monday]].
See Weekly review and last Monday.
Embedded pictures
An embedded picture becomes a box named sunset.png in the editor. Upload the picture there before publishing.
![[sunset.png]]
Math
Math in a line stays as the characters you typed. A formula on lines of its own becomes a code block. Formulas copied from an AI answer come in the same way.
Energy is $E = mc^2$.
$$
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
$$
Energy is $E = mc^2$.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Pictures from other sites
A picture in something you copy from a web page becomes a box asking for your own copy. It is never fetched from the other site, and the note can't be published until you upload a copy or remove it.
Line breaks
A single line break stays a line break, as in Obsidian.

Quoting a note
A line with nothing on it but a note's version address — the note's address followed by /v and a number — shows as a card.
To add one while writing, open ⋯ → Reference, pick a note, and press Quote.
An address without a version is an ordinary link.

Export and import
On a note page, ⋯ → Download .md saves the note as a file like this:
---
title: "What I learned shipping v1"
author: "Sample author"
source: https://linktw.com/SampleNote01/v3
version: 3
published: 2026-09-28
---
Three things went better than planned, and one went worse.
## What went well
- Shipping every week
- Writing things down
Import it with Insert → Import .md / .txt / .html. The properties between the two --- lines stay out of the body, and if the title is empty, the file's title fills it.
