alt Hacker NewsThis looks neat! I suppose I might ask the hard questions - how does this compare to Obsidian, which is my go-to "real time notes app that roughly feels like dealing with a plain text file but better"?
I would also make a small suggestion, which is that there is really no need to emphasize the fact that it's hand-written or without React or etc. While I suppose a small segment of users do truly care that you didn't use React, I think the primary consideration for most users will be how the app works. I would suggest mentioning how your technical decisions affect the user experience: is the performance better - and if so, can you quantify that?
Obsidian: We're mostly solving different problems. I wanted that text editor / IDE feel but with the ability to instantly share and collaborate. Bring in a full team, manage all your docs, give everyone different permissions etc.
So the problems I was thinking about were collaboration and content management between teams. But I also wanted it to work really well as a private personal tool. So in a way it's two tools in one. You can enjoy it solo, and then the hope is you've found something you like and now you can bring a team into it
Re the tech framing, I mostly mentioned it because I figured HN would find it interesting since it's the less taken path. Apologies if it came across as unrelated to the product.
