On my dropbox, I was able to modify and share it on the web or apps. It was not saved.

When I opened html on the file app on my iPhone, js didn't run, so I could only see it

I don't think it's perfect in many ways.


I hope this was a good gift for you. ;)


I haven’t tried sticking an image in it yet, but I drafted a blog post in it already this morning.

Very fun. Nice and lightweight. I like it.

I may submit a PR for you - I have some ideas about how I could make this more personally useful. Saving off files as Markdown is one idea I had. Would solve my “no pretty markdown editor” woes, and also allow me to chuck output from this directly into my existing GitHub Pages blog.


Wow, this is really cool.

I should remember it later and study more.


I came to say exactly this. I was sucked right into this. I am looking forward to reading more thoroughly and understanding it better.


Yes, before I wrote the post on HN, I shared it with my local community and they told me about the same two features.

I think those two services are more appropriate for the name "Note".

For my project, I should have used Page or Document for the project name.


It's because I didn't think hard enough when I named it. I should have described it as a document with a built-in editor.


Yes it has shirimp topping, I really liked it.


That's right. Exactly!

I wanted the document to be edited without a separate editor.


I'm curious, somehow I remebered as JS not getting executed when opening a html file from filesystem, but clearly that isn't the case since this works. Did this change? Maybe I'm just misremembering


If the JS is embedded within the HTML file it should’ve always worked, but when the HTML loads the JS file from somewhere else (that isn’t a relative path or a full URL that’s hosted somewhere else) it would usually fail, thus it wouldn’t work without running it through some kind of server that resolves the path


script type="module" doesn't work from file systems. To my great annoyance. Other than that, I'm quite certain JS has worked from file systems since it existed.


These days, local html seems to be running javascripts.

If you send html to Telegram, the preview will not run js when the recipient opens it. I think Android and IOS work differently.


You are definitely misremembering, unless you are talking about external JS files on ancient MSIE versions I think.


It’s a nice idea.. good job.
