🎯 Project Abstract & Core Value

[[#^toc-abstract|TOC]]

• An efficient Obsidian desktop plugin that scans file explorer navigation items, matches their first alphabetical character via regex, and stamps them with matching data attributes (data-alpha-char). This builds a dynamic, high-performance UI stylesheet layer that colors folders and markdown files across a 360-degree HSL hue spectrum without incurring DOM layout reflow penalties.

🛠️ Technology Stack at a Glance

[[#^toc-stack|TOC]]

• Target Operating System: Cross-platform (Windows, macOS, Linux desktop targets running Obsidian)
• Core Languages & Runtimes: JavaScript (CommonJS modules format), Node.js runtime environment API, HTML5 DOM API
• Integrations: Obsidian API (Plugin, debounce, workspace layout event hooks), DOM MutationObserver Engine
