Obsidian Bases outside Obsidian: open and edit .base files in a browser
A base is a saved query over your notes, kept as YAML. What Obsidian's help says it contains, and what Folio shows from it: table, cards and list views, filters, formulas, grouping, cell editing with rights, MCP for agents. Kanban, map and plugin functions are not supported.

Open an Obsidian vault as a team wiki, without changing a file
