# Obsidian
> A second brain, for you, forever.
>
> Obsidian is a powerful knowledge base that works on top of a local folder of plain text Markdown files.
*Obsidian has quickly become our primary tool for almost everything, and something that we cannot imagine working without.*
*Turning into a spiritual-level powerhouse of an application, literally an amalgamazation of Evernote, (a whiteboard for) Todoist, Google Keep, DynaList, NextCloud, VS Code and Atom all rolled into one happy package. See [[my Love letter to Obsidian]].* 💜
