This is very cool! Any plans for more granular file sizes?


Possibly - whats your use case?


Tbf, they do have the exact same leaf shape. Shame on them.


I'm interested to know how login/auth support is working, where are the credentials stored?


They are just cached in an encrypted token in your browser, not sent to any server. You can have a look in the source code if you are interested: https://github.com/GabrielePicco/hacker-news-rich


Here a very simple explanation of the architecture: https://medium.com/@PiccoGabriele/creating-and-hosting-an-ha...


Looks good! How instant is instant? If I visit a site while he author is updating it will I see the text being added real time?


> will I see the text being added real time

No, only after a page refresh.

I think we won't have automatic page refresh because it gets complicated if the author e.g. decides to add a JS script to the page. But maybe not! Or maybe we'll add it for 99% of the users who don't embed JS into their pages.


I'm a DB guy not an HTMLer.

but then

> No, only after a page refresh.

Which is pretty much what would happen with a static site, no? Edit, save, refresh, visible. Because even I've done that.

(BTW I fully respect your JS orientation but as someone who's going to have to start a blog soon but without JS I won't be able to use your stuff).


> Edit, save, refresh, visible.

Without the "save" step. This is I meant by saying "instant".


I'm interested to know if they ever actually have enforced this


Good to know I'd survive through not being able to afford a ticket!


These still aren't "production" ready yet though unfortunately e.g. they don't currently support keyboard input


Interesting app, I see you've got an Android app planned too, just curious if you're going cross platform and if so what you've created it with?


Loving the simplicity of these
