dSebastien · x · 2026-10-14
Indie developer dSebastien released Obsidian Starter Kit v5, a free lifetime update that packages his own daily-driver Obsidian vault with structure, templates, Bases, plugins and automation.
What's new in v5:
- Finished work files itself: statuses stamp dates and done actions auto-archive after 7 days (configurable per note type)
- One-click daily routine via buttons and captures on the daily note, plus a side panel
- Activities, Ideas and Kanban boards to house every commitment
- An "ideal week" template mapping recurring time blocks to weekly targets
- The AI assistant now looks up the skill it needs on demand instead of preloading all of them
The kit is sold as a one-time purchase rated 4.9/5 by 1,000+ users, with a full write-up including real code from the author's vault.
