CodeSense brings live IntelliSense-like functionality to your Obsidian code blocks — offering syntax highlighting, contextual suggestions, and semantic validation for JavaScript, TypeScript, and Dataview inline or fenced blocks.
- 🔍 Live Suggestions: Context-aware completions as you type (like IntelliSense).
- 🎨 Syntax Highlighting: Real-time coloring of JS, TS, and Dataview expressions.
- 🧠 Semantic Checking: Detect undeclared variables, invalid expressions, and more.
- 🧩 Dataview Support: Smart completions and highlighting within Dataview blocks.
- ⚡ Zero-lag UI: Efficient DOM placement with auto-adjusted popup positioning.
- 📦 Non-intrusive: No need to switch editors — everything works inline in Obsidian.
