Render bullet-journal (BuJo) markers in your notes instead of Obsidian's checkboxes — in both Reading mode and Live Preview.

An emotion or a thought |
The marker glyphs are pure CSS, keyed on the data-task attribute Obsidian
sets on each list item, so they render identically in Reading mode and Live
Preview. Emotion lines (~ …) are tagged by a small markdown post-processor
and a CodeMirror extension so they can be styled.
All styling is scoped under a better-bujo body class — disabling the
plugin restores Obsidian's native rendering.
