I have a similar project https://github.com/shi-yan/Epiphany

Pure HTML document editor. Open source, PWA, based on TinyMCE, with CSS and markup editing, JS macros, saves to local drive, plus OpenAI integration if you have a key.

The features sound great. Some advice though:

- I was about to tell you that there really should be a demo, but just now I realized the "World Wide Web Phase 2 Begins Here" button links to the demo. You really should change that text to "Live Demo" or something more clear.

- The demo itself takes a long time to load and seemed to refresh multiple times

- The GitHub should also have a link to the demo, and an image would be nice as well

- The landing page is very ugly. Any generic template would do better and inspire more confidence.

- Why not highlight some of those features you mentioned on the landing page?

Best of luck! The features sound great.

Aww man! I liked my bespoke landing page! I thought it was a nice change from the bog standard templates.

But good feedback all around, thanks!

Since we're shilling projects, this is the Notion clone I've been working on: https://mindgarden.app/. It's not ready yet though, hopefully will be in a few weeks.

FYI On Firefox/Android the text on your website overflows and gets cut off at the right edge of the screen, without a way to scroll horizontally.

Thank you, will add that to the long list of remaining work!

Wow this looks awesome! Using Lexical?

Yup!

this looks nice and clean - why have you paused development? I see there are 32 github issues

I got distracted by chatgpt and other interests.

But yours never been in top page of hackernews , why ?????

There are terrible bugs. I'm not ready to show it to people.
