Wiki Links

Foam enables you to Link pages together using [[file-name]] annotations (i.e. [[media-wiki]] links).

  • Type [[ and start typing a file name for autocompletion.
    • Note that your file names should be in lower-dash-case.md, and your wiki links should reference file names exactly: [[lower-dash-case]], not [[Lower Dash Case]].
    • See link-formatting-and-autocompletion for more information, and how to setup your link autocompletions to make this easier.
  • Cmd + Click ( Ctrl + Click on Windows ) on file name to navigate to file (F12 also works while your cursor is on the file name)
  • Cmd + Click ( Ctrl + Click on Windows ) on non-existent file to create that file in the workspace.

If the F12 shortcut feels unnatural you can rebind it at File > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts by searching for editor.action.revealDefinition.

Markdown compatibility

The Foam for VSCode extension automatically generates [link-reference-definitions] at the bottom of the file to make wiki-links compatible with Markdown tools and parsers.
