Minimal, but not too simple. Inspired by AnuPpuccin and Border, the main attraction of Minimalists Paradise is a card layout with customizable features via the Style Settings plugin. Never lose track with the safari tabs (inspired by this snippet) which also match your color accent! Enable or disable colored headers with different preset options or create your own.
For a full showcase of all the different features, color schemes and such please refer to the documentation
Disclaimer: ALL showcases have the color accent override setting turned on, this works on a light mode/dark mode basis. This is totally optional, but, even though it takes away a little bit of freedom and customizability, it does make the color schemes look and feel more consistent (as shown below).
WARNING: As of now, some things are not completely optimized for light mode (including some visual inconsistencies in reading mode), such as dataview tables styling and custom callouts. However, other features (such as markdown tables, blockquotes and citations, etc) work as expected in light mode in both reading and live mode.
Minimalist's Paradise is minimal, but not boring. Choose between different presets for both light and dark mode, in an integrated interface via the Style Settings plugin. (This looks even better with the Color Accent Override turned on!)
For a complete showcase of each individual extended color scheme please refer to the documentation.
Give your notes a little color with the colored headers! Choose between different presets or create your own custom combinations.
Does your color accent look perfect in dark mode, but not that good in light mode? With Minimalist's Paradise you can choose between using the vanilla color accent or assigning different colors and tones per theme. This way your theme will always be it's best.
This setting works in a light mode/dark mode basis and is particularly useful for the Extended Color Schemes. There are a lot of things that rely on the color accent (such as table headers, active tabs, citations, highlights, all types of links and more). Therefore, it is recommended to keep this setting on for a better visual, specially regarding the Extended Color Schemes.
Make your notes aesthetic and interactive with the infobox callouts (inspired by and adapted from this snippet).
This is integrated to use the theme colors. If you prefer to use the original snippet with all the customization features, disable the infobox section via the Style Settings plugin.
For more information on how to use this feature, please refer to the documentation or the original snippet repo.
Create callouts with tabs for better navigation (inspired by and adpated from this snippet).
This is integrated to use the theme colors. If you prefer to use the original snippet, disable the tabbed callout section via the Style Settings plugin.
For more information on how to use this feature, please refer to the documentation or the original snippet repo.
Declutter your notes by enabling the Hover Properties Feature. The properties view will stay collapsed by default while still accessible by simple hovering over the "properties" label. This way, your notes will always look clean while your properties are still accessible and functional.

Automatically hides multiple UI elements, including the tab bar, ribbon, status bar, sidepane headers, and vault profile — for a cleaner, distraction-free workspace. These elements smoothly reveal themselves when hovered, allowing you to keep a minimalist layout without sacrificing quick navigation.
