%% date:: [[2024-04-21]] parent:: %% # [[CyanVoxel]] ![[CyanVoxel.svg]] CyanVoxel is the name of [a YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/@cyanvoxel) and the general handle of someone named [[Travis Abendshien]]. I first came across this channel when Travis published a video on how to combine physical and digital notes, about his process for digitising his [[Field Notes]] notes into [[Obsidian]]: ![Best of both worlds? Digitizing Field Notes inside Obsidian (Showcase)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9T9VL8_i1Tg) This video about his Obsidian vault tour is also cool: ![](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAkerV8rlow) ## Theme What caught my eye initially was how striking his vault looked. He's accomplishing this with a few things: - [The Vanilla AMOLED Obsidian theme](https://github.com/SakuraIsayeki/vanilla-amoled-theme) by Sakura Akeno Isayeki - [The JetBrains Mono font](https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/mono/) - This font can be set within the native Obsidian UI in Settings > Appearance > Font - Custom CSS snippets made by Travis: - [Obsidian Colored Sidebar](https://github.com/CyanVoxel/Obsidian-Colored-Sidebar) adds rainbow coloration to folders in the Files section of Obsidian, but requires that the folder names be prepended with two digits like `00`. - [[Obsidian Notebook Themes]] adds the ability to change background and font colors manually on a note-by-note basis. - [Obsidian Daily Themes](https://github.com/CyanVoxel/Obsidian-Daily-Themes) adds seven themes that rotate automatically depending on the day of the week. - [Obsidian Game Themes](https://github.com/CyanVoxel/Obsidian-Game-Themes) adds themes for Minecraft and Runescape. - [CyanVoxel's General Tweaks](https://github.com/CyanVoxel/Obsidian-Game-Themes) includes a few more miscellaneous CSS classes for changing the way things look on the fly. ## Resources - [[How to install a font on macOS]] - [[How to add a CSS snippet in Obsidian]] %% # Text Elements # Drawing ```json { "type": "excalidraw", "version": 2, "source": "https://github.com/zsviczian/obsidian-excalidraw-plugin/releases/tag/2.1.1", "elements": [ { "id": "V7hRAFau", "type": "text", "x": 388.5514131784439, "y": -180.92675018310547, "width": 3.8599853515625, "height": 24, "angle": 0, "strokeColor": "#1e1e1e", "backgroundColor": "transparent", "fillStyle": "solid", "strokeWidth": 2, "strokeStyle": "solid", "roughness": 1, "opacity": 100, "groupIds": [], "frameId": null, "roundness": null, "seed": 1628134616, "version": 2, "versionNonce": 1212942040, "isDeleted": true, "boundElements": null, "updated": 1712048641036, "link": null, "locked": false, "text": "", "rawText": "", "fontSize": 20, "fontFamily": 4, "textAlign": "left", "verticalAlign": "top", "containerId": null, "originalText": "", "lineHeight": 1.2 } ], "appState": { "theme": "dark", "viewBackgroundColor": "#ffffff", "currentItemStrokeColor": "#1e1e1e", "currentItemBackgroundColor": "transparent", "currentItemFillStyle": "solid", "currentItemStrokeWidth": 2, "currentItemStrokeStyle": "solid", "currentItemRoughness": 1, "currentItemOpacity": 100, "currentItemFontFamily": 4, "currentItemFontSize": 20, "currentItemTextAlign": "left", "currentItemStartArrowhead": null, "currentItemEndArrowhead": "arrow", "scrollX": 583.2388916015625, "scrollY": 573.6323852539062, "zoom": { "value": 1 }, "currentItemRoundness": "round", "gridSize": null, "gridColor": { "Bold": "#C9C9C9FF", "Regular": "#EDEDEDFF" }, "currentStrokeOptions": null, "previousGridSize": null, "frameRendering": { "enabled": true, "clip": true, "name": true, "outline": true } }, "files": {} } ``` %%
