notes.woodard.tech is the public slice of my Obsidian vault, published as plain markdown by Quartz. I’m Levi Woodard; the rest of what I do lives at woodarddigital.com.
How it’s put together (TL;DR)
- Obsidian is the editor, git is the pipeline, Cloudflare Pages is the host. The vault sits inside a Quartz checkout and only its
content/folder is tracked and published. Pushing tomaintriggers a build; nothing private can reach the repo, and Obsidian never has to index the build tooling. The long version, including the mistakes, is in Setting up Obsidian + Quartz + Git + Cloudflare. - Quartz v5 with a handful of local plugin forks: the content directory defaults to the vault’s
content/folder; per-page social images are off; dates before the year 1000 print their era, so Genesis 1 reads 4004 BC; Bible folders sort in canonical order instead of newest-first; the search/graph index caps the text it stores per page so it stays small; canvases and Bases render as pages. - Theme: Flexoki by Steph Ango, light and dark.
- The Bible: the KJV, one page per chapter, each verse a block anchor, so a link can land on a single verse, like Hebrews 10:38. Scripture elsewhere on the site is inserted from the vault by a personal fork of the Local Bible Ref Obsidian plugin, which emits the gold
[!BIBLE]callouts you’ll see around here. - Dates are deliberate, not accidental. Bible chapters carry traditional Ussher-chronology dates interpolated across each book; books carry their original publication year; a few notes are pinned to the Unix epoch for fun.
