15 Dashboard 📊

Your day and your vault, on one screen! From today widgets — date, weather, calendar, weekly schedule — to analytics cards like note counts, writing habits, and task completion, it's your own dashboard where you arrange the cards however you like.

← Home: ObsiKO 101

Where do I open it? 🔭

• Open the Dashboard from the view button area at the top, and it unfolds full-screen, just like Graph View. → A Tour of the Screen
• A time-of-day greeting (Good morning ☀️ / Good evening 🌙) welcomes you when it opens.

Period filter 🗓️

• Period-based cards (work & focus time, new notes) have their own 7 days · 30 days · 3 months · 1 year buttons on the right side of the card title row.
• Each card remembers its own choice, saved for next time.

Today widget 🌤️

The full-width card at the top (by default). Everything you need to start the day, in one place.

• Left side: today's date with the year ("Friday, July 10, 2026"), a big current time (updates every minute), and the current weather.
• Hourly weather card: the next 6 hours of forecast in 24-hour time (13:00, 24:00), all in one card. When the window narrows, the whole card scales down instead of wrapping.
• Calendar on the right: this month's calendar sits beside it. Sundays are red, Saturdays are blue, days with events get a dot (•), and clicking a day pops up that day's events and work log! → Calendar
• On desktop the calendar stays beside the clock and just shrinks as the window narrows; on iPhone it drops below.
• Weather uses the city you pick in Settings ▸ Convenience ▸ Weather location. It never asks for location permission — it starts from your device time zone (e.g. Asia/Seoul → Seoul) and you can type any city name and choose from the matches. No API key needed (Open-Meteo), and it's the same source as the {{weather}} template. → Advanced Markdown
• Press ＋ at the card's top right and an event composer pops up right there — fill in time, date, recurrence, priority, and the event is saved to today's daily note (created for you if it doesn't exist). It shows up on the dashboard moments later!

Weekly schedule 📅

A full-width card showing a week of events as a vertical list of days.

• The header shows a week label like "Week 2 of July" with ‹ › buttons to move between weeks. While viewing another week, a This week button appears to the left of the label to jump back.
• Each day row shows up to 3 event previews and that day's weather with high/low temps at the right end. Saturdays are blue, Sundays are red.
• Click a day and its row expands downward into an hourly timeline (08:00–20:00 by default, auto-extended to fit your events).
• Duration blocks: an event like 13:00-16:00 is drawn as a block spanning that whole range. Events without an end time get a 1-hour block, and overlapping events split into columns side by side, like a calendar app.
• Time and title are centered in the block, and thin blocks (like a 30-minute event) show the title inline next to the time so you can always tell what it is.
• Clicking a block or chip jumps straight to that line in the note where the event is written.
• The ＋ in the title row adds an event from here too (saved to today's daily note).

Calendar 🗓️

A full-width card you can view five ways — month, week, day, year, and timeline. It's the same calendar as the one you embed in a note (the ```calendar block in Calendar), so it looks and works exactly the same.

• Pick Month / Week / Day / Year / Timeline in the card's header row. Your choice is remembered (the date you were on resets to today).
• Use ‹ › to move back and forth (Today jumps back) — it steps by a month, a week, or a day to match the view.
• Month: events live right inside the day cells (timed as ● 10:30 Title; all-day and multi-day ones as a continuous bar across the days). When a week can't fit everything, you'll see "+N more".
• Year: all twelve months at a glance, busier days shaded darker. Click a month to jump to its month view. The months lay themselves out to fit the space — 2 across on a phone, 4 on a wide screen — so the day numbers always stay legible.
• Timeline: projects and the tasks inside their notes, one bar per row — projects fold and unfold.
• Click a day cell for a popup with that day's full list, where you can tick items done right away.
• ＋ in the title row adds an event — in Day view it lands on the day you're looking at (today in the other views).
• Events from the same note, or the same subscribed calendar, share the same color, so sources are easy to tell apart.

Google & Apple Calendar events too 🌐

• External calendars subscribed in Calendar (ICS) also appear across the dashboard — the calendar widget, weekly schedule, Calendar card, and today's tasks.
• National public holidays also show by default (Settings → Calendar → 'Public holidays', defaulting to the app-language country). → Calendar
• Subscribed events are read-only with a 📅 icon — no checkbox, no note to open, and past ones never count as "overdue".

Cards that help your day 🤖

• ⚡ Quick To-Do: jot down and tick off to-dos right on the dashboard, without opening a note (type and press Enter). Finished items go to the collapsible To-do log via 📥 Archive, where you can pull them back out with ↩ Restore or clear them with ✕. (It's a lightweight scratchpad saved on this device only.)
• ✅ Habit Tracker: add habits like "drink 2L of water" or "read 30 minutes" and check them off day by day! A 🔥 streak builds up, and each habit can carry a target number of days (1–366 — with 7 · 14 · 21 · 30 · 66 · 100-day presets) to track progress against.
• 💰 This Month (ledger): this month's expenses · income · balance in big numbers, with bars showing your top 5 categories below. If there are no transactions this month, it quietly hides itself. → Ledger
• Today's tasks: overdue, today, and the next 7 days in one place. Check tasks off right there — completion rings and other cards update instantly! Task states are shown just like the Calendar panel — in progress is a half-filled box, cancelled is an X box with a strikethrough (today's cancelled items are shown too).
• Recent files: jump right back into notes you opened recently.
• AI briefing: AI summarizes today's schedule and tasks. → AI Agent
• Topic clusters 🧩: shows what thematic clumps your vault is made of, grouped automatically along your link-and-tag network (zero AI calls — it just reads your vault). Hit [AI summary] on a cluster and it walks you through scope & cost check → summarize → preview → save as note, confirming at every step — it never spends tokens or saves anything behind your back. Saved summaries land in _ObsiKO/summaries/ as new notes with links back to their source notes.
• Query boards: pin your own task boards using tasks queries (or Show a Base). The boards live in one bundled card, so you can move them together in edit mode. → Bases (Data Tables)

Cards for fun and inspiration ✨

The hidden-cards tray holds these too. Pull out only the ones you like!

• Five AI cards: today's writing prompts (click one to start a new note!) · tarot fortune 🔮 · yesterday's retrospective · a blast-from-the-past note · expression of the day. Generated once a day, with a regenerate button.
• Today's Wiki · Word · SCP: a random Wikipedia article (big photo!), a word of the day from Wiktionary (pick the language), and a random SCP Foundation entry.
• Space cards: My Galaxy (a snapshot of your graph view — click to enter the real one) · constellation streak (fill 7 days and a new constellation forms each time!) · NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day · a 🚀 rocket launch the moment you hit 100% of a focus goal.
• Mini games: Korean Wordle · tic-tac-toe · typing practice (choose which notes to quote) · reaction speed · crossword (difficulty levels + AI-generated puzzles)!
• Typing practice and the crossword take the full width so the sentence and grid stay large. Want them narrower? Edit ▸ ⤡ folds them to half.

A little celebration 🎉

When you finish something, a completion stamp lands on the card. Bigger wins add a small burst of confetti.

Wordle comes once a day; tic-tac-toe you can win twenty times in a minute. Giving both the same fanfare would cheapen both. Habits aren't a game, so a single check doesn't set off confetti — and when a streak breaks, nothing scolds you.

If your device has reduced motion turned on, you get the stamp and the words without the confetti. Nothing ever makes a sound.

Arrange cards your way ✋

• Press Edit at the top right and every card gets a dashed outline and a ⊖ button.
• Drag a card and the others glide smoothly out of the way (just like the iPhone home screen!).
• Once you start editing, a small bar floats at the bottom — it stays in the same spot no matter how far you scroll, so you never have to go back up to finish. Hidden cards · + Add group · Done all live there.
• Cards hidden with ⊖ wait behind that bar's 'Hidden cards' button — tap it and the whole list unfolds at a glance, no scrolling; restore any card with ＋.
• Full-width cards can also be folded to half width with the ⤡ button in edit mode (⤢ unfolds).
• New cards from updates start hidden, so your dashboard never gets crowded on its own. A card joins your dashboard the moment you pull it from the tray.
• Layout and hidden cards are saved automatically.

What does it show? 👀

• Totals at a glance: notes, words, characters, links, tags, folders — numbers count up, and the note count gets a trend sparkline.
• Writing momentum: today's and last 7 days' work time with a change vs the previous week (▲▼%), plus characters added in 7 days.
• Activity heatmap: see when you wrote the most, like a grass field! Click a cell to see the documents you created/edited that day. 🌱
• Work & focus time: bars by day/week/month following the period filter, with Focus Timer records alongside.
• By weekday · by hour: which day and what time you focus best!
• New notes · characters added: notes created within the period and characters added per day.
• Tags · file types · folders: where your notes cluster, as bars.
• Hub notes · orphan notes: the central notes where links gather, and notes connected to nothing. → Backlinks & Outline
• Longest notes · dormant notes: your magnum opus (?) and notes you haven't touched in ages.
• Vault growth: how your note count has grown, as a cumulative area chart.
• Hover a chart for a tooltip; click a bar for a drill-down popup listing that day's/month's documents.

How are my tasks going? ✅

• Task status card: total · done · cancelled · in progress · remaining, plus overdue · due today · recurring counts. Click a number to expand the list. → Calendar
• Task completion: two rings, Daily and Weekly, side by side!
• Daily = of the tasks dated today (scheduled/due/start), how many are done. Tasks with no date that you checked off (✅) today count too.
• Weekly = the same for this week (using your week-start-day setting). The ring also shows done/total counts.
• When the card narrows, the rings never wrap — they just shrink.
