How do I create index notes that aggregate related topics in Obsidian?

Create index notes in Obsidian by generating a new note with a consistent naming convention, then embed wikilinks pointing to related cross-note references to aggregate and structure interconnected topics.

Do I need external plugins to manage wikilinks and cross-note references in my vault?
