Bring your Rubik's Cube study to life. This plugin allows you to visualize OLL, PLL, and custom algorithms directly within your notes using interactive 2D cubes and dynamic arrows.

For a detailed guide, run the 'Insert quick start guide' command directly inside Obsidian, or view the full documentation here.

Key Features

  • Interactive Controls: Rotate the cube or reset to the default view with integrated buttons.
  • Smart Rotation: Algorithm notation automatically updates based on your current cube orientation.
  • Fully Customizable: Tailor your experience with custom cube sizes, hex-code colors, and directional arrows.
  • Planned Features: Support for F2L and additional twisty puzzles. See EOF for more.

Where to start?

1. Installation

Find 'Rubik Cube algorithms' in the Obsidian Community Plugins gallery and click Install.

2. Fast-Track with built-in commands

  1. Open the Command Palette (Cmd/Ctrl + P).
  2. Type 'Rubik' to see available commands:
  • Select "Template" for a blank, commented code block.
  • Select "Example" to see a pre-configured block in action.

3. Learn by Example

If you prefer a hands-on approach, download the example Markdown files and drop them directly into your vault: https://github.com/Altarok/RubikCubeAlgoView/tree/main/examples
