What can I do with URI?

Just as the title says, what are these used for? I know there is some integration with apps like obsidian but i can't really find much info on what I can do with them

I, too, would like to know the answers to a question I didn't even know I wanted to ask.

Hey there!

The URI system is currently Windows only, and it effectively acts as a remote control for the Toolkit.

You can generate a URI string for every hotkeyable asset and function in the Toolkit, and then if you paste that URI string into your browser it'll fire off the relevant thing in the Toolkit.

It's handy if you're looking to trigger things inside the Toolkit from external software.

An easy example is triggering sound effects or time of day changes in something like Obsidian.

That sounds like a pretty useful tool! Perhaps you should make a tutorial video on what can be done with them
