How to publish from Obsidian notes

I want to publish posts in my website directly from my Obsidian notes:

  • to reduce the work necessary to publish and focus only on writing.
  • possibly for free

After some research I have found that it is possible for free using various apps.

Note 1: The website that will be created is a static website.

Note 2: I actually pay a little fee per year because I decided to have a custom domain, so I pay for the registration of the domain. If you don’t want a custom domain or have a free domain, it is completely free.

What are needs?

Needs are necessities that, if satisfied, lead to well-being.

Why do we have needs?

Needs are a way our brain use to highlight what we need to live well. They are an evolutionary mechanism that is used to create the necessity to satisfy those needs and facilitate the engage of behaviours that maximize the likelihood to survive and live well.
