Show HN: Spaceboard – Pinterest for Markdown Notes
- aciswhat 6y agoHello HN! This is something I made for personal use, but thought others might find it useful. It's pretty much just a board that you can add random notes to, which can be formatted in Markdown or just plaintext. You can also drag around and rearrange notes, which will auto-tile to not have overlaps. If you have feature requests/ideas, please feel free to create an issue or PR :) The demo is here: https://spaceboard.vercel.app/ https://spaceboard.vercel.app/
- ksaj 6y agoIt reminds me of Post-It type apps, except that the cards can be resized or reshaped, and of course, markdown. Feature request: Configurable colours for the bar on top of individual cards, which would allow colour-coded posts similar to what a lot of calendar apps do for Home and Work. I might use this on our home intranet. Good way to maintain grocery list and todo activities, along with whatever other things families tend to write in magnetic letters on the fridge. EDIT: Ah, I see you are working on a colour method already, according to the Todo list.
- ericpruitt 6y agoWhere's the license?
- aciswhat 6y agoAh, forgot to add. Made it MIT license.
- azeirah 6y agoFwiw, I made something really similar to this a couple of years ago. It's available for free on sandstorm.io https://github.com/azeirah/brainstorm https://github.com/azeirah/brainstorm Made in meteor
- rapnie 6y agoNice. Tip: add topics such as 'markdown' to repo for findability. I overlooked this on my recent GH search for markdown projects.
- idontevengohere 6y agoWould be awesome if you could share the notes (either individually, or the whole space)! I'd probably use this just bc you can arrange things wherever you want :D
- aciswhat 6y agoYep, this is on the short list of my todos at the bottom of the README. Unfortunately, this would seem to conflict with the whole local browser storage setup currently ...
- foopod 6y agoA simple way to share a note that would work with your current setup could be generating a link with the notes content encoded in base64 or similar. e.g. https://spaceboard.vercel.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 https://spaceboard.vercel.app/content/SGVsbG8gSE4hIFRoaXMgaX... Like yeah, it's not pretty. But it would work.
- 5986043handy 6y agoThis looks awesome! I love the tech stack as well, huge fan of TypeScript/React/Next.js
- MrGilbert 6y agoCool! Add a persistent, server-side storage to it, and you've got a whiteboard for "work-from-home" situations. Of course, having a 65"+ touch display in the office could be useful for this use-case. :D
- meagher 6y agoSimilar to http://manifest.app http://manifest.app
- cetra3 6y agoLooks great! I'm a big fan of using markdown for simple formatting of notes. I've also used the layout library (react-grid-layout) with great success for my toy lorikeet alerting dashboard project: https://github.com/cetra3/lorikeet-dash https://github.com/cetra3/lorikeet-dash
- scott31 6y ago"Pinterest for markdown notes", does it mean that you will be spamming google search results with ugly SEO hacks, with markdown content?
- stephenr 6y agoDoes not work, at all, on mobile for me (iOS)
