I am submitting a new Community Plugin

  • I attest that I have done my best to deliver a high-quality plugin, am proud of the code I have written, and would recommend it to others. I commit to maintaining the plugin and being responsive to bug reports. If I am no longer able to maintain it, I will make reasonable efforts to find a successor maintainer or withdraw the plugin from the directory.

Repo URL

Link to my plugin: https://github.com/trailofjohn/PDF-Autoscroller

  • The id in my manifest.json matches the id in the community-plugins.json file.
  • My README.md describes the plugin's purpose and provides clear usage instructions.
  • I have read the developer policies at https://docs.obsidian.md/Developer+policies, and have assessed my plugin's adherence to these policies.
  • I have read the tips in https://docs.obsidian.md/Plugins/Releasing/Plugin+guidelines and have self-reviewed my plugin to avoid these common pitfalls.
  • I have added a license in the LICENSE file.
  • My project respects and is compatible with the original license of any code from other plugins that I'm using.
