VS Code Backlinks Panel

View all backlinks (what?) in the current file.

👉 Inspired by vscode-markdown-notes.

Getting Started

Currently, this extension depends on the roam-style link extension by kortina. This may change.

1. Install the extension from the Visual Studio Marketplace.
2. In VS Code, link to a file with a wikilink. (Eg. Here's a link to [[example.md]])
3. Open the file you just linked to. In the sidebar, there should be a "backlinks" pane which lists the original file.

FAQ
