Show HN: Nash, I made a standalone note with single HTML file

#1
Hello HN, I hope it will posted as well. I made a note in single html file. This does not require a separate membership or installation of the software, and if you download and modify an empty file, you can modify and read it at any time, regardless of online or offline. It can be shared through messengers such as Telegram, so it is also suitable to share contents with long articles and images. It is also possible to host and blog because it is static html file content.

I still don't understand what is this even though I read all you wrote both here and on the web page.

Ok, after clicking around for 10 minutes I think I figured out what this is: it is a single-page WYSIWYG HTML editor with the ability to export either everything including itself, or just the HTML without the editor.

How is this useful? For quick writing and sharing of HTML files, but not the links, but the files themselves.

Very interesting,thank you.

Great work.

Consider changing the behavior so that when the page is opened in the browser from the local disk, then it opens edit mode automatically, but when it's published to someone's website and accessed on the open web (check if the address is http/https), then it's a normal, read-only view expected from most pages.

Of course:

1. there should be a way to override this (a query string param or magic URL fragment) so you can look at it in edit mode, too

2. there should be a blanket exception for certain domains/URL prefixes—defaulting to keepworking.github.io (or https://keepworking.github.io/nash/>)—so it activates edit mode on that site, too, which means that you personally don't have to do anything special to make the demo work (best if this exception is user-modifiable, so e.g. someone else can get the same behavior if they want without using the trick from #1)
