Wikilinks are a way to link between notes using double brackets: [[Note Title]].

Syntax

  • [[Note Title]] — links to a note and displays the title
  • [[Note Title|Custom text]] — links to a note with custom display text

How they work here

In Obsidian, wikilinks are a core feature for building connections between notes. When this vault is published with Jekyll, a custom plugin converts the [[wikilinks]] syntax into standard HTML links.

Unresolved links (pointing to notes that don’t exist yet) are styled with a dashed underline, serving as breadcrumbs for future connections.
