Projects is a plugin for Obsidian that lets you manage and visualize notes for project management.
- Create projects from folders and Dataview queries.
- Switch between four different views: Table, Board, Calendar, and Gallery.
- Configure note templates for each project.
For example, if you're a content manager, Projects can help you manage your content calendar. Create drafts, keep track of their status, and when they are scheduled to be published.

Important
As of May 2025, I've decided to discontinue this plugin. I created Obsidian Projects because I wanted to scratch my own itch. Unfortunately, I'm no longer using Obsidian, nor following the development of the plugin eco-system. That being said, if there's an interest from the Obsidian community to take over the plugin, I'd be more than happy to facilitate the changes necessary.
Edit 2025年07月18日: It's come to my attention that the plugin has been removed from the community plugin list. If you'd like to keep using the plugin, you can install it with the BRAT plugin.
Note
You must turn off Restricted mode to use Projects.
- In Obsidian, open Settings.
- Under Community plugins, select Browse.
- Search for "Projects" by Marcus Olsson, and then select it.
- Select Install.
To get started using Projects, press Ctrl+P (or Cmd+P on macOS) to open the Command palette, and then select Projects: Show projects.
When developing any software, you are often faced with difficult choices. To help guide design decisions, this project adheres to the following principles:
- Leave no trace: The plugin must not leave any plugin-specific configuration in the notes, such as custom front matter properties. Notes may be shared with colleagues and teams who don't use Obsidian. If the user stops using this plugin, they shouldn't have to clean up all their notes.
- Keep it native: The plugin should look and feel like it's native to Obsidian. The plugin should also prefer native Web APIs over custom components whenever possible.
- Stability over features: This plugin is geared towards professionals with high demands on reliability. Any bug reports and usability issues will be prioritized over new features.
If you're curious about what we're working on, check out the roadmap:
