Thank you for your comments, just some context: - The app is available for iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, Apple Vision Pro, and the Web. - The Web version is implemented as a Progressive Web Application that is very responsive, local first, offline first, can be installed, and is entirely free to use. - Native (hybrid) versions do not require subscription fees and have small one-time payment. - You can store your notes in Git using any Git provider such as GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket.

Plannotator▲97I started this in January as a hook for Claude Code's plan mode: when it finished planning, instead of approving a wall of text in the terminal, the plan opens in your browser and you could mark it up like a document. Your annotations go back into the agent session. It grew from there. There's now PR-style code review (git, jj, p4, GitHub/GitLab PRs) and annotation for markdown, URLs, and folders. Agents produce a lot of HTML now, so Plannotator renders those artifacts and lets you annotate them too. Nine harnesses are supported: Claude Code, Codex, Copilot CLI, Gemini, OpenCode, Kiro,…

I'm excited to introduce my own developed Markdown editor to everyone. It's built on the Monaco editor and designed specifically for developers. This editor integrates various features such as document management, resource management, and MDX extensions. You can embed images, audio, video, and even use plugins like drawing tools, calendars, and cards to showcase your creativity. What's even more thrilling is that it allows users to customize PostgreSQL table structures, insert and display data in Markdown documents, and even collect form submissions. My original intention in design was to…
