Obsidian 1.13.4

Obsidian 是一款以本地 Markdown 純文字檔案為基礎的知識庫工具，核心特色在於透過雙向連結將筆記串成網絡，並以視覺化的知識圖譜呈現關聯。它解決了傳統筆記軟體難以整理、連結與回顧大量資訊的痛點，讓筆記不只是存放，而是能持續生長與發掘關聯。軟體本身免費提供個人與教育用途使用，且不需註冊帳號即可運作，內建豐富的核心外掛與數量龐大的社群外掛，擴充性極高。開發團隊更新相當頻繁，屬於長期活躍維護的工具，雖然在辦公分類中並非主流首選，但使用者評價普遍相當正面。

這套軟體特別適合需要長期累積與整理知識的研究者、寫作者或專案管理者，尤其是偏好將資料以純文字格式保存、重視隱私與檔案自主權的人。與 Microsoft Office 等傳統文書軟體相比，Obsidian 的取捨在於它並非所見即所得的編輯器，而是強調結構化與連結的筆記系統，學習曲線較陡，但換來的是更高的彈性與資料可攜性。目前僅提供英文介面，macOS 使用者可直接下載使用，若需要中文介面則需仰賴社群外掛或後續版本支援，選用前需稍加留意。
