Galaxy View

A cinematic 3D graph view for Obsidian — fly through your vault like NASA's Eyes on Asteroids.

Your notes become a galaxy: luminous nodes colored by your graph groups, thin desaturated link filaments, a slowly rotating starfield, and a camera that glides instead of jumps. Beauty and playfulness are part of productivity.

Highlights

  • Fast on real vaults — 3,000+ notes / 20,000+ links render at 60 fps in under 10 draw calls. The force simulation runs in a Web Worker: zero main-thread jank, even during layout.
  • Cinematic camera — click a note to fly to it (the camera arrives off-axis and immediately starts orbiting, sweeping across the side where its neighbors cluster), idle cruise with organic drift, a reveal animation that blooms the galaxy out of the center on open.
  • Playable physics — repulsion, link distance/strength, center pull, and a flatten force that turns the cloud into a spiral-galaxy disc. Drag a slider and watch the universe rearrange in real time.
  • Style & color presets — Galaxy / Nebula / Minimal / Fireworks bundles, plus color themes (Hubble deep field, neon, sunset film, cyberpunk, Matrix, aurora) or import the color groups from your core 2D graph.
  • Focus mode — selecting a note dims everything but its neighborhood, highlights its links at full saturation, and shows a card with backlinks, tags, and a snippet.
  • Search & navigate — fuzzy search flies you to any note; WASD/Q/E free flight; right-drag or ⌘-drag to pan; F/R/ESC shortcuts.
  • Mobile aware — automatic quality tier on phones (no postprocessing, top-1500 nodes by degree, bottom-sheet cards) keeps it smooth on iOS and Android.
  • Two visual directions — always-dark deep space, or theme-adaptive with a designed ink-on-paper light mode.

Install

From the community plugin store (pending review): search for "Galaxy view".

Via BRAT: add Longwind1984/galaxy-view in the BRAT plugin.

Manual: download main.js, manifest.json, styles.css from the latest release into <vault>/.obsidian/plugins/galaxy-view/, then enable it in Settings → Community plugins.

Usage

Click the orbit icon in the ribbon, or run the command "打开星系视图 / Open galaxy view". The control panel (top-left) holds style presets and collapsible sections for bloom, physics, appearance, cruise, and advanced options. Hover any slider and double-click to reset it; everything persists.

Privacy

No network requests, no telemetry. The plugin reads your vault's link graph and (optionally, read-only) the core graph's color groups from .obsidian/graph.json.
