SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Obsidian users want to create Excalidraw diagrams that integrate directly with their notes, enabling architecture diagrams, flowcharts, and mind maps without manually crafting JSON or losing visual fidelity.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Generate pure Excalidraw JSON files with the v2 schema (type, version, source, elements, appState, files) to represent diagrams inside Obsidian.
  • Support container-element bindings and the required two-way bindings so diagrams stay synchronized when moving or editing.
  • Use internal Obsidian links (wiki links) to connect diagram elements to notes, headings, or blocks for quick navigation.

Quick Start

Create Diagram.excalidraw in your Obsidian vault using a valid Excalidraw v2 JSON with a container and bound elements, including wiki links for internal navigation.
