Callout syntax
`> [!note]` form. Supports note / tip / warning / danger / success.
What is a callout
A callout is a semantic upgrade of the blockquote (>) — declare a type on the first line with [!type] and the renderer turns it into a colored, icon-prefixed box. Visually louder than a plain quote, great for risks, TODOs, key takeaways.
Kition’s callout syntax is fully compatible with Obsidian and GitHub Flavored Markdown — the same content roundtrips across all three.
Basic syntax
> [!NOTE] 标题（可选）
> 内容第一行
> 内容第二行

Advanced usage
Callouts fold — add + after the type for default-open, - for default-closed. Useful for long checklists you want collapsed by default and one-click expanded.
The body accepts full Markdown — lists, code blocks, tables, wikilinks, even nested callouts work.
