I’m trying to organice content on a home screen using some boxes (or cards as they are called in other apps), similar to what Obsidian does in its help page, organized in columns. The idea is to make like a directory of my content visually appealing.
I believe those specific ones are done using Kepano’s card lists.
Sample Markdown and CSS snippet below. With the snippet, you don’t need to be using the Minimal theme. If you are using Minimal, the card option is built-in.
Have you considered using Canvas for that? It gives you complete freedom to place your ‘cards’ anywhere. Plus, with the help of Canvas Candy, you get lots of styling options.
