Obsidian Capture Tool - Chrome Extension

Allows you to quickly capture notes from the Chrome browser and save them to your local as a .md file You can save this to your Obsidian Vault and it will show up there right away

• I've done this by saving the files to my Google Drive Obsidian Vault

How to Use it

• Load the build file into the Chrome extensions management

• Pin it to your Chrome bar

• When firing it up: the title will auto-populate with your current URL

• Add notes as needed

• Click on Review Notes to open up a new web page

• Save it to the file of your choice

• Notes persist when the extension is closed and opened, so manually clear them out when ready

Shortcomings (might be addressed in the future)

• Chrome does not let us download files directly from the extension, so would need to open it up on another web page
