In plain words

Blank.page is a dev tool that provides a persistent blank page by utilizing the browser's local storage API. Launched in 2020, it serves developers who need a simple, reliable workspace that retains data between sessions. The tool's key feature is its use of local storage to ensure persistence, allowing users to maintain their work without external servers or manual saving.

    I wanted to see how far I could go building a notes app using only what modern browsers already provide – no frameworks, no storage APIs, no build step. What it does: Single HTML file, no deps, 111 loc Notes live in the URL hash (shareable links!) Auto-compressed with CompressionStream Plain-text editor (contenteditable) History support Page title from first # heading Respects light/dark mode No storage, cookies, or tracking The entire app is the page source. https://textarea.my/
