As a native Windows user who switched to macOS a few years back, one thing I never got over was the simplicity and usefulness of the old school Notepad app. This app aims to recreate that very same experience, cross-platform and easily installable as a PWA.

I've been using this for personal use for around 2 years and I figured it was time to share it with the world. Criticism, issues and PRs are welcome. Thanks!

I agree with your critique. We really shouldn't be celebrating when a simple text editor requires literally millions of lines of code to run.

If you include the OS, the hardware BIOS, the switch gear at the ISP, the internet backbone, DNS, BIND, etc, etc it's probably into the billions.
