Switched from column to row connectors.

3x3 not so great for legibility

Setting up a grid.

The right-side writing preview is working again.

Got most of the keyboard shortcuts functioning for the pseudo-vim notecard writing app.

Working on paragraph groups in the writing app.

Finally tried out React hooks so that I could get react-dnd working. I was grumpy about it but after reading a bit of the docs it went pretty smooth.

A first run at a notecard-inspired writing app. Write in notecard-sized chunks on the left, with a final document preview on the right.

Trying out Theme UI.

The lines are probably too much.

Art.

Still ascii-experimenting.

I gave in and connected some things.
