Looks interesting. Cross-references within the same doc are surprisingly rare in Markdown editors. However, there is no import function for existing Markdown (or any other file format)? That makes it pretty hard to try this out in a serious way.
For now, it is only copy&paste
To have some content, open any website and press cmd+a, just past it into the editor. depending on the size it might take a little but the editor tries to clean up your pasted content and inserts it.
Stream of thought feedback – nice idea, but feels clumsy:
- Same doc references to sections or tables, how are they supposed to work? Can't get it to work.
- I hover over the "element selector" way too often by accident when just wanting to access "settings".
- I wish there was a sidebar that shows all available elements. The popup is kinda annoying. The popup also doesn't indicate that it is scrollable.
- Linkify-feature opening a modal is annoying and breaks the flow, should be a hovering tooltip.
- Coming from a Markdown editor, I kinda fight the section-concept constantly. For example, tab creates a new section, whereas I expect a code block.
- Electron-app feeling, less optimized than VSCode.
- How do I create a second document?
Just my two cents, but currently, it wouldn't fit for my use case.
Thanks for your feedback. You can find the x-references when you insert a citation, there is an extra tab for this
