Playing about with Obsidian lately as a note replacement app and started treating a portion of it like a books list, read, currently reading, notes etc and I just think it’s neat.

There’s some settings on the right panel, my main nodes are red due to changing the theme but you can have them more custom, image with settings + how my current graph looks + an older first version. ^^

Thank you very much for this! I'll check it out when I'm home and see if I can get something similar going!

The theme I was using originally was Obsidian, playing about with some others so they’re worth trying out ^^

Settings > Appearance > Themes > Manage.

Update: For colours.

Sorry, gonna add another comment here. How did you get a "#" at the start of a node name. My app complained when I tried to do that myself, saying links won't work with that

Not an issue, I add tags to the body instead of the title since it really doesn’t like that so, example!

If you have any other questions my matrix is /@snacx:matrix.org

I get this error trying to make a file name contain a "#". I am doing like you with links in the body though

Yeh so if you leave the title and enter the body and try the tag then it’ll work, you can connect each page with a tag by just placing it in the main body ^^

I did not understand the concept of a tag until just now lol. I'm understanding now though. Thank you so much for the help :)

I just got home and got to try out the settings you suggested and this is awesome. It's exactly what I wanted it to look like. Thank you very much again for all your help today :)
