gollark: Technically it's TypeScript, but similar thing.
gollark: My notes are currently handled by DokuWiki but this is problematic in several ways.
gollark: As I said to sinþ:> If you actually are interested, the basic idea is just Notes Application #129719257 designed vaguely around wiki principles and as a shiny JS-based SPA.
gollark: I have a list of extra necessary stuff:```* Tags* Revision history* Media handling* Metadata/structured data support? At least for media* Usable mobile support* Search!* Efficient space use - compression?* Make inter-device synchronization possible* Consistent scrolling behavior* Probably some kind of macro-y or extension feature for important stuff like embedding maths/PDFs```which I expect to never finish.
gollark: So far I have:- page viewing capability (Markdown → virtual-DOM HTML)- page editing/creating capability (literally a `textarea`)but that's... basically it?
