I really like where this is going, it seems a bit rough around the edges right now (which is totally fine!) but functional enough to be useful. Really happy it's free, open source and offline first (I can just sync through Drive or Dropbox).

Couple thoughts on some exploring: - Webpage capture: seems that only links with `http` in front work, would be great to get resolving working nicer (say news.ycominator.com should work). Can't see this being a large issue as mostly I would copy paste from my browser, which keeps the http

- The "inspect element" menu in the editor seems a bit unnecessary, as I don't really think of PDFs as HTML. I guess this may be nice for some folks who are familiar with HTML but for me its a bit confusing.

- I managed to crash a page by highlighting a section and using the page down buttons(unsure exactly what caused this)

- I had some performance issues when resizing the page on a longer pdf (140ish pages), crashed and then wouldn't reopen until I restarted the application

As I said a bit rough around the edges still, but as you hopefully get more use these bugs/inconveniences will get ironed out. Excited to see this develop and great work!
