Canvas Boards
.canvas files (the JSON Canvas format used by Obsidian) render as interactive boards.
Live example: Guide Map — it sits in this vault as a regular .canvas file.
What's supported
- Text cards — the markdown inside renders in full.
- Note cards — show a note's content; clicking opens it.
- Link cards — external links with a title.
- Groups — frames with a label.
- Arrows between cards, with labels.
Interactivity
- Scroll wheel to zoom, drag the background to pan; on open, the board fits itself to the screen.
- Cards can be dragged (the arrows follow along) and resized by the right/bottom edge or the corner.
- Rearrangements last until the page reloads — the site is static, the source
.canvasdoesn't change.
The board shows up in the left navigation like a regular page.
