Counter Plugin for Obsidian

A simple Obsidian plugin that creates interactive number counters with +/- buttons.

Usage

To create a counter, use the following syntax in your notes:

~ (0) counter label

This will render as an interactive counter starting at 0, with minus and plus buttons to decrease or increase the value.

Examples

~ (0) Tasks completed
~ (5) Days streak
~ (100) Points earned

Each counter is independent and maintains its own value in your markdown file.
