fountain

What problem does it solve?

It helps you write and maintain screenplays in Fountain format by ensuring your text follows the exact syntax the format expects, especially for scenes, dialogue, and screenplay structure.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Fountain syntax validation & guidance: Learn and apply the rules that determine whether a line becomes action, scene headings, characters, dialogue, parentheticals, transitions, lyrics, and page breaks.
• Structure for outlining and revision: Use sections and synopsis lines for planning while keeping those organizational elements non-rendered.
• Obsidian Fountain-specific enhancements: Support margin markers, todos, note kinds, cross-file vault links, snippets, and boneyard sections for alternative content.

Quick Start

Open or create a .fountain file and write your screenplay using Fountain rules for scene headings (INT./EXT.), character names (ALL CAPS), and dialogue, using optional markers like [[todo: ...]] and [[@marker]] as needed.
