Project Stria - Web-based Markdown Editor

I’ve been working on a web-based Markdown editor inspired by tools like Obsidian, focused on structured documentation workflows.

The idea is to explore a browser-based writing environment for:

  • documentation
  • knowledge bases
  • structured Markdown content
  • RAG-ready text pipelines

What it includes:

  • Live Markdown preview
  • Callouts and Mermaid diagrams
  • Link-based structured notes
  • Obsidian-like writing experience in the browser
  • API-first design (docs/api.md for backend integration)

Current status:

  • Frontend-only prototype (no database yet)
  • No persistence — just live editing/testing in the browser

What I’m trying to validate:

  • Is this type of browser-based Markdown editor actually useful?
  • Would you use something like this?
  • What’s missing for real-world adoption?

Any feedback is appreciated, especially brutally honest takes.
