Obsidian Simple Read Later is a Chrome extension that allows users to save URLs to their Obsidian vault with a simple click, enabling them to read them later. The extension requires Obsidian to be running in the background for seamless functionality.

Installation is straightforward: users need to install and enable the Obsidian Local REST API extension, enable a non-encrypted HTTP server for Obsidian Local REST API, and copy the API key. When attempting to save a link for the first time, the extension will prompt users to insert the API key in the settings and click "Save" to complete the setup process. Once configured, users can easily save URLs for later reading.
