I love using Obsidian to organize the handwritten notes I take as a grad student and this is an overview of my personal setup and workflow. I use a Supernote A5X, but this could work with a Kindle Scribe or iPad or Boox Note Air or Remarkable 2 tablet… or even PDF scans of hard-copy notes!
I use this system mainly for study notes and the like, but I can see this being easily adapted for meetings, projects, and other types of handwritten note taking with a date element.

I have a video on what I consider ESSENTIAL Obsidian plugins here! ua-cam.com/video/puq9jpZeiIc/v-deo.html
Curious about the e-ink tablet I use in the first half of the video? I have a few videos on e-ink tablets on my channel: ua-cam.com/play/PL21DGY8jeMgxGRcINlphpLkg49QjE-lDy.html
Want to learn more about Obsidian? I highly recommend Nick Milo's Obsidian beginner guide, which starts here: ua-cam.com/video/QgbLb6QCK88/v-deo.html
This was SUPER interesting. I always find people who use Obsidian to all have very unique and interesting systems and they’re all such a great reflection of their personalities. Notion is great but something about Obsidian just hits home.
I continuously come back to video to steup my obsidian and integrate it my notes in my Supernote. Very useful indeed, but only becuase of the integration but because this video gave me more organization ideas for my meetings and projects. Thank you.
great to see someone with the same technology stack as I (supernote and obsidian) combine them in a productive way. I struggled so far to link them together and your approach makes sense, I will try it out.
Your workflow is elite! Thank you for sharing, I'm exploring options for how to improve my study & workflow and the stuff you've got put together in obsidian has really opened my eyes to what's possible.
I finished my studies 2.5 years ago - yet I find this video very inspiring and relaxing. Good job 👍
I use Obsedian as a Second Brain, I will takeaway something from this video. Keep them coming 🔝🔝
I have been using my Supernote for a year now. I have been trying to integrate into a PKM, trying Notion, Obsidian, Amplenote and an app called Clover. This video blew my mind in terms of some of the customisation you can do with Obsidian. Thanks, great video and gave me alot of ideas.
I came across your video for the first time by searching for Obsidian setup, and I thought this channel was like a gold mine. Thank you for baking delicious videos.
This is terrific - exactly what I was looking for - someone using Obsidian and Supernote - my Supernote A6X2 is on order, and I have been an Obsidian user for 2.5 years now - fully integrated with Daily notes, Kanban, Dataview, etc. What you shared here is encouraging!
Thanks for sharing your flow. Exporting your notes out of your super note is very creative.
I'm impressed by the way you are able to maximise the full potential of Supernote! I will try Obsidian, it looks very interesting
Thank you! Obsidian has a bit of a learning curve but there are some great UA-cam tutorials out there, I hope you enjoy using it :)
Ah, cool! I love obsidian and have been excited to see a workflow. Thank you!
Obsidian has been a huge help in getting my notes and thoughts organized, I love it too. Thanks for watching! :)
Awesome video! You should make more :)
I'm also really curious about your Obsidian workflow and how your calendar and todo works. And I love your theme
Thus is something nextlevel. Thanks for insights
I am impressed by your hands !
Thank you so much for this video! I took inspiration and recreated this with noteful on ipad and anytype instead of obsidian using sets and inline sets
Your Obsidian theme is pretty cool! What is it??
I'm geeking out lol. I just discovered Obsidian about 8 months ago, and I've been anticipating the A5 X2 for a while now. This perfectly matches my workflow! I was not expecting to see a Supernote + Obsidian workflow.
Is there an A5X2 release date?
@@David-iq1kd It gets moved from time to time. Right now it's looking like Spring / Q2 2024
Liked this obsidian setup that seems a lot more practical than those fancy setups. Nice video.
Awesome video. Was looking for someone who incorporates handwritten notes from a tablet into Obsidian; love to see your workflow
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much!!
Thanks for sharing this! I'd love it if the links in SN someday get built out to the point where they can function as an Obsidian-esque knowledge base
Another great video.Thank you for sharing your workflow! I’m currently using Obsidian and Zotero with my exports.
Hi! i'm thinking in buying an e-ink tablet, but i don't kow how to integrate a device like supernote in my zotero/obsidian workflow.
I highlight and annotate in zotero's built in pdf reader and then export them to my obsidian vault.
How do you use your supernote with your zotero/obsidian workflow?
@@tiago08ci Danny Hatcher has content about Obsidian and Zotero. I don't think he uses an e-ink tablet. He answers UA-cam comments
i am a Masters student and i use UpNote!! Very easy to use and works on every platform
Woah, that Set Up looks great! I would be interested in a complete Obsidian Set Up Guide, since i find it still a little bit confusing.
You're not the only one. I'm still not sure how to integrate the two
Very cool! I have been wanting to get a Supernote but don’t want to split myself between Obsidian and Supernote. This is perfect! Thank you
She has a newer video talking about Supernote's linking feature. Are you going to use both or only Obsidian?
It looks like a great system, do you covert the had written Supernotes to text at any step in the process flow?
amazing video, thanks for sharing. Is there any app to extract notes from pdf like you did but on an android tablet?
Could you please tell us how you manage to highlight the whole line?
Your notes are so aesthetic and readable that I would want to refer
to.
how do you highlight the entire line, love the aesthetic btw
Do you link within the Supernote to other pages in the same daily note? If yes, are those links preserved (still linked) in the PDF export?
Best note taking video ever.
Well, dang. Looks like I’ll be getting a supernote.
What theme are you using? Looks so clean.
Hey, how do you do those colored half highlighted titles at 4:52?
Great video! I have 1 question about it: how were you closing windows by clicking on them?
What is obsidian? Is it more organized than the supernote default?
Hola me encantas tus videos, puedes hacer uno similar con Notion? Saludos desde Costa Rica!!
It was great to see your workflow. Wow, your Obsidian theme is very clean. Is that the minimal theme with some other settings turned on? You offered a great summary for how you get your notes from the Supernote onto Obsidian. I'm wondering how you transform those notes into assignments/outputs? Do you write your assignments in Obsidian too? Thanks for sharing and have a nice day.
Thanks for the comment! The theme is Primary with colors for certain things (links, backgrounds for some heading levels, etc.) changed using Style Settings.
When it comes to written assignments, sometimes I outline on Obsidian to collect notes/references in one document. But mostly it’s open to the side for reference as I write-we use some specific formats on Word/need to stick to page counts on Word so I find it’s easier to write in there.
How did you style your theme to have that thick underline/half background look? That's really neat and i'd like to copy it! Do you have those for all links?
Theme details in the description, and I replied to someone else in the comments re: highlights
I love love love this! Does anyone have any ideas for automating the sync from Supernote to Obsidian?
any answers?
@@JS-mq6ve Not yet. :(
Great video!
How did you manage to highlight your text in different colors? Do you use a community plugin for various highlighters?
I’m using a theme here that supports multi-color highlights (Primary (Legacy), but others like Sanctum and Shimmering Highlights do as well, I believe) and I use an older version of Smarter Markdown Hotkeys for the shortcuts for that. But if you’re using another theme there’s also the plugin Highlightr!
@@pixelleaves Thanks a lot :)
Do you use OCR to search for handwritten notes in obsidian? Does this work? Searchability is important.
Out of curiosity what is your major?
What a lovely video. I loved your Obsidian theme! Thank you so much!
thank you - this was very interesting. Do you maintain your breadcrumbs by hand or use the breadcrumb plugin?
Great question! I typically make new notes while in existing, related ones so I usually use Note Refactor to do it, and that automatically leaves (with my settings) one breadcrumb back to the note it came from. Sometimes I add more. I’m not very fussy or strict about structure/hierarchy and just add if needed/as I go.
@@pixelleaves ah, I will have to investigate that setting. Also, do you OCR your handwritten notes?
@@cptbrncls7050 No, I don’t
What theme you using?
I think I finally get dataview
Hi, really appreciate what you shared! Your workflow is very elite and organized.
I just have a question: How do you make the breadcrumbs link in your note. Thanks in advance.
oh i figured it out in another video of yours :) thanks anyway
Great video! Saw you have a Boox as well, do you know if it has something similar to the digest function that could he used for the same workflow into Obsidian?
You can export your PDF highlights and (text) comments on them, which may work for you as well!
@@pixelleaves Thanks. I'm trying to decide between the SN/Boox for the same purpose - reading, annotating and taking academic notes by hand that will end up in my Obsidian vault. Had been leaning towards Boox, but seeing your demo has made me reconsider.
@@chaecramb This video on a different channel shows the difference in how it looks/works: ua-cam.com/video/LUErGpu5u5A/v-deo.html
This is very interesting thanks. When you link in your pdf on your desktop, does it copy it into the obsidian folder? Is that work transferable to other devices?
You can set it on Obsidian to copy all attachments to a folder in your vault
@@pixelleaves thank you!
AAAA! She was using a Lamy AL-Star fountain pen, color Turmaline!!! 0:14 💙💚💜
So, Obsidian remains a notes graveyard, where they go to stagnate and can no longer be easily dynamically inked. I wish Obsidian natively supported inking.
Ai have a question. Do you think that could be possible that a Boox device could integrate better in your workflow since in a boox device you can instal Obsidian. Thanks for answering.
Right, I have a Boox device, and so I run Obsidian Android app on it and export handwritten notes directly to Obsidian from the Notes app. Tip: first open the Obsidian note you want the handwritten note to go in.
What theme and plug-ins are you using to make Obsidian to look like notion?
Details are in the description
@@pixelleaves oops I didn't realize that thank you
what app are you using for making the handwritten notes and annotations? is it available for Windows?
It’s the built-in app of that specific tablet (Supernote A5X), so no it’s not
@@pixelleaves ah. Damn. Always seem to find out about interesting things just about too late
how did you do the underline highlighting?
I think I figured it, used highlightr community plugin and setting is on lowlight
I spotted your 'status/todo' tag - I'm curious about all the tags you use in your system? What are their names/purposes? Also, what's a 'study note'? Thank you :)
I don't actually use very many tags in my vault, usually they're status-related (e.g. notes I need to drop things into, notes which aren't "done" and I need to fill out more, to-do items) and of course the tags for courses which are very defined categories: I do one tag for each course (e.g. #BA for Business Analytics).
Study Note and Course Note are just the names I use to separate the notes which are about different topics vs. the daily notes I use in class. You can name those anything you want. :)
@@pixelleaves Thank you so much!!
My wife got me an A6X we'll I wait for the A5 X2 to come out. Haven't gotten this far into setting up my workflow, but does anyone know if the Supernote supports Markdown yet? I saw some mumblings about it on Reddit that were posted a few years ago that said it was on the Roadmap, but I haven't seen anything about it since. The ability to write / annotate Markdown would be awesome for a two-way workflow!
I use Obsidian Canvases a lot too. I like to dream a little, but support for viewing, or even creating / editing Canvases _on the Supernote_ would be _*next level*_. I feel like that might be getting a little too busy, though. But I'm do a lot of mindmapping and diagramming in Obsidian, and it's one of the reasons I can't wait to get started with my Supernote!
As I am writing this, your comment is 4 months old. Someone has a 1-month-old comment stating that they are working on what you are asking about. He posted about it on the subreddit
@@brendalg4 Nice. I'll have to find it. That'll be amazing.
4:09 bro ur teach is fighting sleep demons lmao 😂😂
Are you able to search for text inside of your handwritten notes in obsidian?
so you no more use handwritten notes by your supernote to go through things, but you send over handwritten notes to Obsidian and only use Obsidian to go through and find things among all your notes later on when you actually use notes you written? thanks...
Nice review. It seems Supernote has apps for multiple devices including Windows, MAC, IOS and Android. As an experienced user of both, maybe you could tell us how Obsidian compares to Supernote? Does it pay to use both note taking apps?
I’m not sure you’re looking at the app affiliated with Ratta (maybe a similarly named app?) because as far as I know the Ratta Supernote only has an iOS/Android app and a web based one only for viewing/syncing and *not* note-taking - supernote.com/pages/sync-with-supernote-cloud-or-dropbox
@@pixelleaves I was looking at the closely named, supernotes. Thank you.
Can handwritten notes be searched in Obsidian? Right now, that's my main hang-up with Obsidian.
Have you tried bringing in anything from Goodnotes? I know Goodnotes is linkable to an extent, and so is Notability. Just curious if you’ve figured out a workaround?
Bookmark 2:00
could you please give me your own version of Primary that it compatible with 1.0 obsidian
So we can install Obsidian on SuperNotes tablet ?
Looks like notion
I'm a Notion user too and I have to say I find Obsidian much more customizable, but this theme does hit similar notes! :)
OBSEDIAN IS GREAT BUT ...not better than Notion
I actually use both, for different things. Each has its own strengths and weaknesses
It’s much better than Notion. Notion is only online so it’s incredibly annoying to use. It’s also significantly slower than Obsidian.
@@phantomstranger1125 what ..how ..notion is available offline as well as online..both have almost the same latency even notion have more higher speed comparatively as they are using AWS servers ..idk about obsedian but i know that they are not using AWS ..Obsedian is slightly better in presentations , graphical representations etc..But yeah notion sucks in Mobile
@@aswinmanmathans6837 Obsidian is all local/offline; it’s always going to be miles faster than Notion. Notion can be used offline, but you still need an internet connection for the changes to actually be rendered. People also complain a lot about data loss from using Notion, especially when using offline.
It's not using obsidian and ebook a good way.
Explain yourself pls
So basically you use your entire day organising your notes.
Nope. :)
Is this meant to be a diss? Better than what we are doing making throw-away YT comments 🤦♂️
@@NDMAyy it is meant to be a "diss" (i dont really know what that word mean), but i guess it is a diss.
The system this video propose viewers to use is so complex and with a lot of steps, that there is a lot of pure notetaking that is spent on organizing. I feel like this comment took to much time typing out, and thats why i used the inappropriate "diss" above. I would like to apologize to the creator of the video, and to you. My opinion still is the same, but i agree with you're saying in your own "diss"-kind of way: I should be better at commenting.
@@VilladsClaes all good, I get your point now 👍 It is indeed going to require higher up-front time initially, but for some of us we can begin locating encyclopaedic levels of knowledge in an instant hereafter. If you have ever had so much information for reference that you end up spending significantly more than half your time trying to find the references and information in the first place then this solution might be worth a revisit 📕📗📘📙📖📚
@@NDMAyy I really appreaciate your elaboration on the benefits of building up good habits and thereby knowledge bases. I can see how this can be done by following the instructions in this video.
A very similar way to build this personal wikipedia, i by putting [[ and ]] around concepts in Microsoft Onenote.
What's that Obsidian font you're using? It looks awesome! 🤌
I can't take credit for it, it's the default font that comes with the Primary theme: Karla. :)
