Plugin: JotBird - Publish any note to a shareable web page, no account required

Hey everyone — I’m the author of The Markdown Guide and I built a publishing plugin for Obsidian called JotBird.

The idea is simple: click publish and get a URL you can share with anyone. That’s it!

What it does:

  • One-click publishing from the ribbon, command palette, or right-click menu

  • Images are uploaded automatically

  • Callouts, Mermaid diagrams, and math render on the published page

  • Republishing updates the same URL

  • Published URL and expiration date are stored in your note’s frontmatter

No account is required. Install the plugin, open a note, and publish. Links last 30 days. If you create a free account, links last 90 days. Pro ($29/year) makes them permanent.

Install via BRAT:

  1. Install BRAT from Community Plugins

  2. Settings → BRAT → Add Beta Plugin

  3. Enter jotbirdhq/obsidian-jotbird

The plugin is open source and submitted to the community plugin directory — BRAT keeps it updated in the meantime.

Happy to answer questions. Feedback welcome — good, bad, or brutal. :slight_smile:

There’s also been some good discussion on the r/ObsidianMD subreddit if you want to see it in action.
