This was my biggest question. Thanks for preemptively answering (and being proud!).

When I was playing with this, I immediately thought of TiddlyWikis, which I've always been fond of, but they never took for me. However, an easily editable presentation -- that's a use case I can understand.

I couldn't see how there was a CDRT when I'm just working with a single file. I was trying to figure out where the server was. So -- this is just on for everyone? Are you concerned that your Cloudflare account will be hammered with this?

My project for the past few years is called AppDeck, collection of self-contained HTML files that know how to save themselves back to the AppDeck server, which is just WebDAV. AI has been enormously helpful in building out a suite of apps that can do this. So far I have a diagram editor that can produce SVGs, a multi-document editor that backs everything with markdown, but supports Kandan boards, documents, logs, and calendars. I also have a work flowy clone that I've really been enjoying organizing ideas with at work. There's a gallery app that inlines all of the images and can display them full screen in a light box and with a timed slideshow that also supports captions and encryption.

All of it just runs out of a folder on disk and can either be deployed locally or on a server behind a login. I intend to open source it, but I'm not quite proud enough yet of some of the implementation aspects to do so. Hope to do it this summer though!

		My initial reaction was “woah, you just described HyperCard”. Which isn’t exactly true in retrospect, but kudos for capturing the promise of (at least for me) one of the formative technologies that subtly, and not so subtly, influenced the web we know today.

You can play around in the guestbook. I'm in it right now and you can see me editing things.

Cloudflare Durable Objects are pretty cheap and I'm using it like a very basic pub/sub with each deck having it's own DO. I did some calculations and it should be well within my spend limits.

Something super small that I've noticed in the guestbook: since there're a lot of people connected, I noticed that every time I received an update, I lost the focus of my text element, so it was a little bit difficult to write something.

It may be annoying if two users are working at the same time in the same project.

Again, very cool project! :)

		Yup, I've made a note of this and will fix it once the Show HN traffic eases off a bit. Thanks for the feedback and the kind words!
