You may also _just_ want obsidian from unstable if you don’t want to deal with the occasional API break, I have a long-form answer on how to do that here: [Installing multiple packages from unstable channel in configuration.nix - #2 by TLATER](https://discourse.nixos.org/t/installing-multiple-packages-from-unstable-channel-in-configuration-nix/19271/2)

Wonder if a tutorial for this would be appropriate on nix.dev
