Obsidian Bases

By Steph Ango (Kepano / Obsidian)

Create database views over your Obsidian notes to track projects, tasks, and reading lists.

Lark Calendar & Tasks

• Creates calendar events with titles, times, locations, and attendees
• Updates existing meetings or changes event details on the fly
• Adds or removes people from calendar events automatically
• Creates tasks with due dates and assigns them to team members
• Lists upcoming events so you can see what's on your calendar

Obsidian Bases

• Creates table, card, list, or map views of your notes based on filters you set
• Lets you group and sort notes by any property (status, date, tags, folders)
• Calculates fields automatically like days until deadline or price totals
• Shows summaries like averages, sums, and counts across your filtered notes
• Works with your existing Obsidian notes without changing how you write them
