I found this really interesting! This mirrors how Google is also using canvas in Google Docs and basically abandoning the DOM. This gives them so much control — they’re writing directly to the canvas, they’re not relying on any platform rendering - but also means they need to take over so much of the look and feel and affordances that the platforms provide natively. This definitely isn’t the kind of tool for everyone but seems super useful for some use cases.
