If I remember correctly, Gmail stayed in beta for some (~4+) years.

Looking at the repository, maybe the author wants to work on mobile support, think about alternative storage methods, as for the last commit, maybe he's working on something else of simply living his life.

Well, I didn't have a need to add or to change anything since then.

Here's the full timeline to get a general sense of the development pace - http://nullboard.io/changes

This is very cool. BTW, when developing single HTML file apps, instead of localStorage, one can use the HTML as the source of truth, so the user can just save/save-as to persist. I had mentioned my quick and dirty attempt at an image gallery that is a self-contained html file and some really liked the concept, if not the "app" itself: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41877482

I really think we are as developers underusing setups like this. If you could somehow figure out a simple but effective sync between devices then that would be able to cover many use-cases. Maybe we just need an sqlite with better support for replicas? Then people have one tiny server with a bunch of sqlite’s to which the apps can sync?

For something as simple as this a manual export/import would be the most appropriate. Probably not a strong foundation for a communication tool.

This sounds like a job for WebDAV!
