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

The idea is you would write everything in the webpage, like. Google Doc. Then you can download that web page and share it with anyone anywhere and nearly everyone will be able to read it because it will open in a browser

Would I be able to store and edit this type of note on Google Drive? I like to keep documents in the cloud so I can access and edit them from anywhere, like Google Docs. But I don't think Drive can actually open html files, despite working entirely inside the browser.

Thanks for making this. Sometimes I want to just write a quick note and serve as a static html file and this is very useful for that purpose.

Would the use case here be like a dirt simple splash page / redirect / under construction page?

This is cool. It's funny how we are (or maybe just I am) so used writing the JS parts of websites outside of the actual HTML that my first thought upon seeing this was "wow it's crazy that this can be done with just HTML". And then looking at the source and seeing all the JS in plain old script tags made me remember that that's a thing that you can do.

HTML is underrated. Most of the screens we look at daily, including our code editor are HTML pages.

Eh, no?

My Code editor is NeoVim or it's IntelliJ

But there is no HTML page involved at all.

What I want to hint at: You're extrapolating the usage of VSCode.

According to the latest stack overflow dev survey 74% of respondents use vs code. I think it's a pretty safe statement.

Pretty sure IntelliJ contains a bunch of bundled webviews for various things.

Also, extrapolating usage of vscode seems pretty fair since they said "most"

I actually was hoping to find something like this, but that uses local storage as a backend so it can be plugged into my reframe [1].

It would be nice to have a reasonably nice text editor for notes and whatnot everytime I open a new tab.
