I built a way to access my Obsidian vault from a browser. Would love your feedback!

I built a way to access my Obsidian vault from a browser. Would love your feedback!

Hey everyone,

I use Obsidian as my main note-taking system, but my work laptop is completely locked down by our IT team, so I can’t install a lot of third-party apps (such as Obsidian 😭).

It’s been annoying since a lot of my thinking for work projects is stored in my Obsidian vault and I don't want to have to switch between my work laptop and my personal devices just to check on some ideas I had recorded down..

I ended up building a browser-based vault interface to access my notes and it's been really useful for me personally.

As I continue working on it, I wanted to ask:

  • Are others dealing with this kind of restriction with their work devices?
  • Would browser-based vault access actually be useful for you, or not really?
  • Any specific features you'd like to see if you were to use something like this?

Happy to share the platform if anyone’s interested, I just don't want to come across as shilling a product. Everything i've built is 100% free and accessible.

Cheers, and happy Easter! 🐣
