What it does

Code Story lets you document your project, using live views of your codebase, and much more. Embed live views of your code right in the middle of your notes. Jump into your favorite editor, or the other way round. Just need to do a small edit ? Click into the view and transition like magic into a full-page editor, without leaving your note.

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
