  • Plugin 'Note Codes' assigns a 4-character code to every note in Obsidian.
  • Codes allow quick referencing of notes from other places like hand-written notes.
  • Includes a protocol handler for direct note access via codes (e.g., obsidian://note-codes/open?code=XX-XX).
  • Codes exclude similar-looking characters (O, I, L, U) for clarity but handle them smartly.
  • Codes are generated based on note's name and path, changing if the note is renamed.
  • Uses SHA-256 hashing of the note's path and Douglas Crockford's Base32 encoding for code generation.
  • Open-source and available on GitHub.
