Within my vault I like to have a Home Page. A place I can go to where I keep a handful of links that I commonly use.
The process for creating the Home Page is covered in this video.
# Required Plugins
Here is a list of the plugins that are mentioned in the video.
| Plugin | Usage |
| -------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- |
| [Advanced Table](obsidian://show-plugin?id=table-editor-obsidian) | Makes it easier to make Tables. |
| [Dataview](obsidian://show-plugin?id=dataview) | Primary Plugin |
| [Various Complements](obsidian://show-plugin?id=various-complements) | Automatic Linking and Front Matter Dropdowns. |
| [Heatmap Calendar](obsidian://show-plugin?id=heatmap-calendar) | Discussed but not used. |
| [DB Folder](obsidian://show-plugin?id=dbfolder) | Optional. Nice way to create new notes. |
## Top Link Bar
The page has a section of images along the top that server as pretty links to other notes. The images themself serve no function, they are there for visual appeal.

This is just a table. The top row has a link to the pictures. It makes use of the [ITS Theme - Image Adjustments](https://publish.obsidian.md/slrvb-docs/ITS+Theme/Image+Adjustments) to resize the images into smaller squares.
The second row is just links to notes.
I make use of `\` before special characters like '|'. This is called escaping and basically means I don't want the tool to use the `|` as part of the table. I am `escaping` the `|` with a `\` to tell the tool that it should ignore the pipe for it's current expectation and instead allow it to be used for it's normal purpose.
