Welcome to Quartz 4

Quartz 4 is a static-site generator that transforms Markdown content from Obsidian into websites. It serves as an excellent alternative to Obsidian's official publishing service.

Feature Review

✅ Fundamental Features: Great

  • Code blocks: Excellent syntax highlighting
  • Links: Seamless markdown link support
  • Images: Proper image handling and optimization

🚀 Special Features: I Love It!

  • Linked notes like Obsidian: Preserves bidirectional linking
  • Note previews: Hover to preview linked notes, just like Obsidian
  • Graph view: Visual representation of note connections

⚠️ Areas for Improvement

  • Math blocks: Could be better (current LaTeX rendering has limitations)

Overall Assessment
