Zen

Zen

A focus mode Obsidian plugin. Inspired by "iA Writer". Sometimes you need to remove all distractions, or at least a few. What if you could just disable elements on a whim?

Instructions

After installing the plugin you can quite easily change the "hidden items" from the settings tab.

(Optional) Install beta using Obsidian42 - BRAT

1. Install BRAT from the Community Plugins in Obsidian.
2. Open the command palette and run the command BRAT: Add a beta plugin for testing.
3. Paste this repo's link into the pop-up. a. https://github.com/Maxymillion/zen.
4. Click on Add Plugin -- wait a few seconds and BRAT will tell you what is going on.
5. After BRAT confirms the installation, in Settings go to the Community plugins tab.
6. Refresh the Community plugins list.
7. Enable the Zen plugin.
8. If you do find any bugs, please report them here.

Integrations

The plugin contains a system which allows end users to write integrations following a provided interface. This allows for functions called when entering and leaving zen-mode. I've written an integration for the following plugin(s):

• Typewriter Scroll Obsidian Plugin by deathau, the integrations enables/disables the typewriter interface when entering/leaving zen-mode.

Enable/Disable Zen

Options - Highlights

Sometimes those names can be quite convoluted, hold the eye button next to the toggle to get a glimpse of which element you will be hiding.

Todo / Future Plans

• Add Command Macro's to Integrations (which would allow you to run commands on start and close).
• Provide "Focus Profiles" which allows you to go into several "focus modes"

Other plugins

This plugin works perfectly with my other plugin, Simple Zoom which allows you to use the CMD/CTRL and = or - key to only increase the font size of the editor instead of the complete UI.
