Introduction
Writing
The post editor
How the editor works: the toolbar, slash menu, autosave, metadata panel, and source mode.
The media library
Upload, browse, and reuse images and documents. Pick covers and inline media without leaving the editor.
Your inbox
Where mail sent to your @valeon.blog address arrives. How to read, reply, archive, and forward.
Cross-post references
Link to other Valeon posts from inside the editor. Three ways to do it, and how links stay live across moves.

Install the plugin, create an API key, and push or pull drafts between Obsidian and the dashboard.
