1) Vault-Setup

Although all of this seems lenghty, you could set up the export in 15 minutes I guess.

Folders:

Define 3 Locations in Obsidian (you probably already did so..)

  1. Folder For Pictures

    • holding your pictures for latex! (Pictures in .md will get rendered, but need to be in. .md syntax, not wiki links! If you have problems, I suggest installing link-converter plugin)
  2. Folder for Templates

    • holding the 1) frontmatter-Template.md and your 2) uni.latex template. You can set different paths for these if you want, but you don’t have to. You will download and put them in their folders later on.

Example-Setup

Vault/
└── Pictures/
└── Templates/
    β”œβ”€β”€ Eisvogel-X.X.X
    β”œβ”€β”€ uni.latex
    β”œβ”€β”€ Frontmatter-Template.md

or:

Vault/
└── Pictures/
└── Templates/
    └── LaTeXTemplates/
        β”œβ”€β”€ Eisvogel-X.X.X
        β”œβ”€β”€ uni.latex
    └── MarkdownTemplates/
        β”œβ”€β”€ Frontmatter-Template.md

… etc.


Binds:

To handle Obsidian in the most efficient and confident way, you should just remap the Hotkeys you practically need to the combination that you are already used to from other programs. I will suggest some Plugins later on and also suggest some binds.

For example my Hotkeys for bold are control + b ; italics control + i …

I also like setting the Headers 1-5 to control + 1, control + 2 /etc.
