Very fun idea, to have a node server that serves editable HTML documents and saves them if you update them.

The tech: Hyperclay is a NodeJS server and frontend JS library that allows HTML pages to update their DOM and then replace their own .html source with the updated version.

Imagine clicking a checkbox, which adds the checked attribute to its element, then using Hyperclay to globally persist this version of document.body.outerHTML, so that it's there next time someone visits the page. There's automatic versioning and read/write permissioning.

I also very much love the hand-drawn aesthetic of the site
