Start here: introduce yourself
Welcome to The Construct. This is a small group of people who look at Obsidian the same way: not as a note app, but as the place your whole life runs from. Work, studies, health, admin, a business, all of it in one system that makes things simpler instead of adding another thing to manage. If that's how you think, you're among your people. Most of the world doesn't get it. Everyone here does. I built this place because a vault is the starting point, not the finish line. The real system gets built over months, adjusted to your actual life, and that goes faster when other people are building next to you. One note about communities like this: the value isn't in the content, it's in the people. Everyone who's ever got something out of a group like this posted. Nobody who only read did. Reading gets you nothing here. So the first thing to do is say hello. Copy this, fill it in, post it as a comment: Hi, I'm [name] from [city]. I do [what you do]. I've been in Obsidian for [how long]. I want my system to run [work / studies / a business / everything]. The thing that frustrates me right now is [one thing]. When you do, three things happen: I reply to you personally, I unlock the free Obsidian + Claude Basics course for you, and the next person who joins reads yours and posts too. How this place works: - Stuck on anything? Post it in Help. No question is too basic. - Built something? Post it in Showcase. Screenshots looks prettier than descriptions. - Own the Evergreen Vault? You're a Builder: the Builder Kit and the live call every two weeks are yours. Your turn.

I'll go first. Howzit, I'm Dee from Amsterdam, originally South Africa. I run Construct By Dee: I build life systems in Obsidian and Claude Code for independent professionals, and make videos about it. I've been in Obsidian for just over 4 years. My system runs everything: my businesses, health, wealth, journaling, travel, life's boring admin. The thing that frustrates me right now is content creation. I'm building tools with Claude Code inside the vault to automate the boring parts (video editing, thumbnails, voice cleanup), and I'm getting there. Keen to help you and learn from you.
How Help works
Post anything you're stuck on here: a template that won't fire, a dataview that shows nothing, a Claude Code skill that ignores you. No question is too basic, and someone in here has probably hit the same wall. How answers work: - I read every post and answer the general ones here in the thread. - Questions that need a deeper dive go on the list for The Construct Live, the weekly call for Builders. I take the most-asked one and build the fix live. - Questions that need me inside your vault ("why does mine do this?") are consulting. Book them here: https://www.constructbydee.com/offers/pRAgDpkz/checkout Two things that make answers faster: a screenshot of what you see, and the exact text of any error.
