Obsidian 1.4.0 is currently in early access and it introduces Properties!
This is a game changer for me! I’ve had to use Dataview and other plug-ins to achieve something similar, so I look forward to the native support.

Is this just a new way to use/render the YAML metadata or something different?
If so, it is great to be able to have live links, tags, etc. inside the block. Not too sure about the editor, though. It seems to increase the disconnect with what I think is one of the big selling points of Obsidian: notes are just .md files. The properties editor feels like something different, not part of the note’s text…
There’s more details here: https://obsidian.md/changelog/2023-07-26-desktop-v1.4.0/
Sounds like a nice front end and utilities to manage Properties, which are stored as frontmatter adhering to the practice of it all being plain text. Which I like. :)
