As you can see in this chart, there are three main objects in Obsidian: Folders, notes and attachments. Folders can contain several notes and attachments. At its core, Obsidian is nothing but markdown files inside a folder.

Quartz

Quartz is the bridge between a local instance of Obsidian and a responsive HTML website. It uses GitHub as a repository for all notes and HTML assets. The website is built and pushed to my domain (the website you are currently on). For more information visit the project’s official website.
