Show HN: HTML Commenter

Hi! I vibe coded a small tool that I think is relatively unique — at least, I haven't found anything like it — and I've found personally extremely useful. I don't know if anyone else will, but I'm sharing it just in case someone does find it useful. Basic description:

HTML Commenter is a zero-dependency, self-contained document annotation tool for any static HTML page. This system allows users to annotate the text on a web page, auto-saves their comments to local storage, and lets them share their comments with others via compressed links or back them up with JSON files, all without requiring a server or external libraries.

The goal of this project is to provide a lightweight collaborative document annotation experience for people who:

- don't want to use SaaS and/or heavy PWAs

- don't want to have to install and maintain software on their own server

- don't want to ask users to install software (like LibreOffice)

don't want to have to send - multiple versions of files around like it's 1990 and we're dealing with Word Documents

- prefer writing in plain markup languages (like Markdown, Org, or HTML), exporting to HTML, and posting their writing to their domain (either self hosted or on things like NeoCities)
