Obsidian-publish is awesome. But, for a student with zero income source like me, the 8$/ month price tag isn’t. I have tried to implement the free alternatives out there, but all of them are either too complicated or not aesthetically pleasing. Oh, and all of them lack a crucial feature i.e Graph View. That’s why I have tried to create a free alternative of Obsidian-publish to showcase your notes. Here’s my attempt. I am attaching a few snapshots below…
Right now, I’m super excited to announce that, you can now convert entire obsidian notes, with just a single click. Introducing Pubsidian Convert GUI v1.0 …
Enter your name (It will be reflected as ***'S NOTEBOOK in your pubsidian website) and hit Convert to Pubsidian. Now, a pop-up window will arrive. Select the Attachment folder, i.e., where the images, used inside your obsidian notes are stored from the pop-up window.
After running successfully, you’ll get an OUTPUT directory, containing three elements: index.html,data.json and pages directory.
[x] One-click convert - convert and host your obsidian notes just with a click. (ver 3.0)
[x] Latex rendering. (ver 3.2)
[ ] Adding content search and tags.
[ ] Theme supports and other customization.

After thorough testing, I have found some bugs during the conversion.
![[Pasted Images]] are not converted properly. However,  shows no problem at all. [FIXED]
2.Markdown tables are also facing problems during conversion. [FIXED]
3. Multiple directories are also facing some problems.
I’m working on it. Meanwhile, if you have any other bug/issue please put it in the issues.
If you have any ideas/suggestions, please put them in the comment section.
I only looked at your site for a bit, but it looks perfectly decent. The graph view was there, if via the side button slide-out, but it works well. Considering you are saving ~$100/year, I would say it looks great. Wishing you the best.
I did see this work around for publishing to a blog with another free md editor. Of course, you have to have a blog and I suspect that would cost as well to be able to use such functionality.
Personally, I have a website and I am going to wait for the Obsidian wordpress plugin. I had a vision for doing this same type of distributed wiki-like publishing on my site, but before finding Obsidian it was going to be very labor intensive to link everything.
Hi! Thanks a lot for your feedback. I’m currently working on a script so that, anyone can transfer their notes to a blog, just with a click.
I had also thought about the WordPress integration, but since both WordPress CMS and Obsidian are closed source, the process would be complex, tedious, and of questionable efficiency.
That’s why I’m working on this project so that fellow users can be benefitted from this. Let’s see how far I can go.
Tried to implement that. But the main problem is Obsidian uses wikilinks instead of conventional mdlinks. That’s why it requires separate markdown parser. If anyone helps me in that part, I don’t have any problem to use .md file with the official obsidian-css to build a website.
Moreover, if you want to take some part of my script I will be happy! My project is to simply share some obsidian note so, a blog that copy totally obsidian plus would be super cool!
Thank you so much. I will definitely look into your code.
Meanwhile, please feel free to optimize/ modify/ upgrade my code, especially the “md2html” function (line no. 70). Thanks in advance.
@Klaas Thank you so much for your kind words. I’ve updated the netlify link as well as the instructions to convert obsidian notes. Feel free to inform me if you have any query/ suggestion.
it on github.

Just remove data.js script from the index.html. But, in that case, you have to code the navigation list manually
