This is a repository for digital version of Taxonomic literature : a selective guide to botanical publications and collections with dates, commentaries and types, ed. 2 (usually abbreviated TL-2). It is presented as a folder-based markdown-formatted "vault" for Obsidian and can be either viewed online (https://tl2.io) or used offline from your own Obsidian installation.
- Install Obsidian: https://obsidian.md/download.
- Download TL-2 vault (any of TL-2_* archives in https://github.com/sav-che/TL-2/releases/latest) and extract it in a preferred location.
- Open Obsidian. On the first launch it will ask for action – select "Open folder as vault" and navigate to the folder you specified above. If you already have some vault opened, click on small "Open another vault" button in bottom left corner, as in the screenshot below. After that the setup is done.
The fonts cannot be included in the vault. If you want to see the same fonts as in tl2.io, please install them on your system:

Advanced search options including regex are explained here: https://help.obsidian.md/Plugins/Search

Note that Obsidian have two modes: editing and viewing, toggled with a button on upper right. Usually you would want to keep it in reading view.
- If you want to edit the content frequently, you might want to switch default mode to "editing" in Settings → Editor → Default view for new tabs.
