Wikilinks
Kiln fully supports Wikilinks, the standard linking syntax used by tools like Obsidian. This allows you to connect your notes and embed media using a simple, bracket-based notation that is easier to read and write than standard Markdown links.
Linking Notes
To link to another note in your vault, simply wrap the filename in double square brackets. Kiln will automatically resolve the path to the correct file.
| Syntax | Description | Result |
|---|---|---|
[[Index]] | Standard Link Links to a file named Index.md. | Home |
[[Index|Home]] | Aliased Link Links to Index.md but displays "Home" as the clickable text. | Home |
[[Index#Features]] | Anchor Link Links directly to a specific header section inside the note. | Home#Features |
Note: You do not need to include the
.mdextension inside the brackets.
Embedding Media
You can embed images directly into your pages by adding an exclamation mark ! before the link. This tells Kiln to render the file instead of just linking to it.
Syntax
![[Image.png]]
This syntax supports standard image formats including .png, .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, .svg, and .webp.
Resize Options
You can control the display size of your embedded images using the pipe | syntax:
![[image.png|300]]: Resizes the image to a width of 300 pixels.![[image.png|100x100]]: Resizes the image to exactly 100x100 pixels.
