Vault Graph

Vault Graph is an Obsidian visualization plugin and standalone exporter that represents an entire vault as an interactive graph. It uses a deterministic layout: each top-level folder occupies a wedge sized by its share of the vault, while notes fill concentric rings ordered by connectivity, placing highly connected notes near the center and leaves near the rim. The same layout is produced for the same vault rather than using a force-directed simulation.

Overview

The graph supports folder filtering and repacking, note-link inspection on hover, note search, a date timeline for viewing vault growth, theme switching, heatmap and camera controls, note reading, and folder colors. The plugin reads Markdown files and link and frontmatter data through Obsidian's metadata cache, and reads note bodies only to count words. It writes only its own settings data, makes no network requests, and requires no account. The exporter produces a single self-contained HTML file that can be viewed offline without a server or network connection.
