# Manta Graph Manta Graph is an Obsidian Community plugin that reads the current note's outgoing links and presents them as an ordered outline or a one-hop graph. - It reads one active note and its direct links; it does not build a Vault-wide graph or infer backlinks. - Markdown and Canvas files are never changed. Only normalized display preferences are saved; graph positions, previews, search, and navigation history stay in the session. - Version 1.6.15 supports desktop and mobile. The automated suite covers parsing, ordering, navigation, settings, and the large-note budget; release checks still require a loaded-plugin smoke test. **[Install in Obsidian](https://community.obsidian.md/plugins/linked-graph) · [Try the demo Vault](https://github.com/woonyong-choi/obsidian-navigator-demo-vault/releases/latest) · [User guide](docs/user-guide.md)** Version: **1.6.15** · Obsidian **1.8.0+** · Desktop and mobile. See [release notes](CHANGELOG.md) for shipped changes and the [roadmap](ROADMAP.md) for work in progress and plans. Manta Graph: preview connections, open a note and return to the outline A six-second loop of the current view using sample notes. Timing is condensed. This is a view fixture; the original Obsidian capture is below. ## Install and try 1. Open the [existing Community entry](https://community.obsidian.md/plugins/linked-graph) in Obsidian, then install and enable it. 2. Create notes named `Lesson` and `Practice`. Link to them in a third note: ```markdown - [[Lesson]] - [[Practice]] ``` 3. Keep that note active and run **Open Manta Graph for the current note**. Select **Outline** to follow the links in their written order. Works offline without an account. It follows existing links and does not edit your notes. Create link targets first; unresolved links do not become routes. Manual installation: download the three plugin files from [Releases](https://github.com/woonyong-choi/manta-graph/releases/latest) into `.obsidian/plugins/linked-graph/`, then reload Obsidian.
