## Obsidian-flavored Markdown

Extended syntax you already use, rendered the way you expect:

- Callouts: `> [!note]`, `> [!tip]`, `> [!warning]`, `> [!important]`, `> [!caution]` with optional custom titles and `+`/`-` collapse modifiers
- Highlights: `==highlighted text==`
- Comments: `%%hidden note%%` renders as faded italic
- Wikilinks: `[[Page]]` and `[[Page|Display Text]]` render as dashed-underline internal references
- Frontmatter: YAML at the top of a note renders as a clean property card

## Discord-flavored Markdown

The same formatting Discord users know, rendered natively:

- Spoilers: `||text||` (click to reveal)
- Subtext: `-# small caption`
- Emoji shortcodes: `:tada:`, `:fire:`, etc.

Note: Discord reads `__text__` as underline, but CommonMark, Obsidian, and GitHub all read it as bold. yeet.md follows the majority and renders it bold, so a Discord message pasted here shows bold where you expected underline. Everything else Discord-specific is unaffected.

## Companion tools
