VirtFolder for Obsidian

Creates a virtual hierarchical folder structure for notes, enabling a Luhmann-style Zettelkasten organization without moving files.

Chinese summary

Key Use Cases

  • Organizing notes into a tree structure based on topics or associations
  • Simulating a physical Zettelkasten within Obsidian without restructuring existing files

Pros

  • Flexible reordering and restructuring of notes
  • Supports Luhmann-style note linking

Limitations

  • May cause confusion if users expect actual folder changes
  • Requires understanding of virtual vs. real file hierarchy
