[Docs] Add Guide For Users Coming From Obsidian #1336

Open ShaunaGordon opened 4 months ago

ShaunaGordon commented 4 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I've noticed in the Discord a number of users coming from Obsidian, and a quick search through Issues here show a number of feature requests for parity with it.

Describe the solution you'd like

I think it would be useful to have a page or section that talks about the differences from Obsidian, how to migrate (perhaps with link to tools like what might have been created some time ago in #46 ), and the open feature parity requests.

Describe alternatives you've considered

There's not really alternatives to be had to this, other than to keep revisiting these requests on the Discord server.

Hey! @ShaunaGordon my name is Krishna, could you please guide me as to how I could contribute to this issue in the best way possible.

Hi @krishnasvp !

If you're asking about the technical steps of contributing, I think there's a Contributors file in the repository that should tell you the expectations.

For the documentation itself, I'm thinking a good place to start is going through and collecting a list of Obsidian features that people ask about in the Discord and in the GitHub Issues, then either showing how to do the equivalent in Foam, or link to the existing GitHub Issue.

There's also the migration Issue that might benefit from usage instructions, if it still works or is applicable.
