What do you do when you need to share a quick write-up about a new idea or a short explanation of a code snippet? Do you fire up Google Docs? Create a Github Gist?

Sharing your thoughts should be simple, with no login or registration required.

This was the motivation behind mkdn.link. I couldn't find a quick & easy way to write-up and share documents on-the-fly, so I built a no-frills Markdown editor, publisher, and viewer.

mkdn.link is a Next.js app that leverages IPFS to store embedded images and published documents. All content is pinned on IPFS using web3.storage. We can potentially further leverage IPFS to extend the functionality of mkdn.link. For example, we can enable P2P sharing of document stores using an OrbitDB instance, or live editing using IPFS pubsub via an IPFS-JS browser node.

The code is completely open source. If there is interest in extending the functionality and further integrating with IPFS (in a fashion that preserves the simplicity of the editor, then I am happy to collaborate to make these features a reality!
