I researched with the assistance of AI (was struggling with hallucinations of something that it hadn’t been taught) for the required Bases syntax to convert my previous vibe coded weekly mood board with `DataviewJS` into the new methods of sorting, filtering and formulas this plugin brought to the Obsidian core experience

I do use Dataview and DataviewJS (the plugin) to crete advanced dashboards based on #hashtags and #hashtags_todo #hashtags_issue, #hashtag_complete, etc... It effectively takes my notes and turns them into raw data to supply a dataview live mining dashboard. It works pretty well overall.

You can then use dataviewjs to make cool visualizations and stuff but I have not gone that far yet.

Dataviewjs to get the current (subject's) note's aliases, then search through all 'index' notes for the headings that contain any of aliases. ... I freaking LOVE it.

DataViewJS (the 2nd most popular third-party plugin) lets you program anything you can imagine, with a freakish amount of flexibility... I highly recommend it to anyone else that became inspired by Bases.
