Hey 👋

If you use Obsidian and have ever wanted to publish your notes as a website, we’ve built something that makes this easy.

Flowershow lets you turn an Obsidian vault into a fast, clean website — perfect for blogs, notes, or digital gardens. And to make publishing simpler, we built an Obsidian plugin that connects your vault directly to Flowershow.

Publish your vault to the web — directly from Obsidian

With the Flowershow Obsidian plugin, you can publish your notes without setting up repositories or dealing with complex workflows.

The idea is simple:

Install the plugin
Connect it to Flowershow
Click Publish

Your notes are uploaded, built, and published as a website — straight from Obsidian.

No Git required.
No command line.
Just write, then publish.

Flowershow now supports HTML publishing!

Flowershow now supports raw HTML publishing! 🚀

Sometimes converting to Markdown just feels wrong—whether it’s a hand-coded portfolio, a data dashboard, or a custom landing page. You want the file exactly as it is.

The Old Way: Piling HTML into Markdown blocks, fighting layout: plain frontmatter, and hoping the parser didn't break your CSS. It was brittle and frustrating.

The New Way: Drop your .html file into your content folder and publish.

flowershow publish index.html

No configuration needed.
No formatting errors.
Mix-and-match: Keep your docs in Markdown, but use raw HTML for custom landing pages or HTML reports

It just works.

Turn your Obsidian vault into dynamic galleries with Obsidian Bases

Theo Bertol — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 17:26:08 +0000

If you use Obsidian, you probably have "collections" – a folder of books you've read, a directory of project notes, or a list of recipes.

Usually, these notes have metadata (frontmatter) — covers, ratings, dates, tags.

You often want to list them in a nice way, displaying those fields (like a gallery of book covers with ratings), instead of just a text list.

But automatically generating these views on a static site is hard. You often end up manually maintaining a brittle Markdown list (- [[Book A]], - [[Book B]]). It’s tedious, and it breaks the moment you add a file but forget to update the index.

We added Obsidian Bases support to Flowershow to fix this.

filters:
  file.folder == "books"
views:
  - type: cards
    image: cover_image

Flowershow takes that, scans your folder, and renders a beautiful, filterable grid of cards.
It lets you define dynamic views — like Cards or Tables — directly in your Markdown.

Instead of writing a list, you write a query:

I wanted to publish one Markdown file, not start a project

Theo Bertol — Wed, 21 Jan 2026 22:46:58 +0000

Most publishing tools assume you’re building something permanent.

But a lot of writing doesn’t look like that.

Sometimes it’s a single Markdown file sitting on your machine. You’ve finished writing, and all you want is a link you can share.

We built a small CLI for that moment.

The Flowershow CLI lets you publish directly from your terminal — without setting up a repo or clicking through a dashboard.

Quick start

npm i -g @flowershow/publish
publish auth login
publish ./my-folder

Done! You'll get a ready to share URL!

If you make changes later:

publish sync ./my-folder

This doesn’t replace UI-based workflows. It’s for people who already live in their editor and terminal and want publishing to feel like part of the same flow.

It’s currently in beta and requires Node.js.
Docs cover the details, or you can explore via publish --help.
