I built JotSpot as a super lightweight tool for quickly writing and sharing markdown notes.
The idea was to remove friction. You open the page, start typing, and the note autosaves in the background. Each note becomes a clean shareable page.
Features: - Markdown support - Live preview - Autosave - Shareable links
Tech stack: Flask, HTMX, and PostgreSQL running on a self-hosted server.
Built with Flask and HTMX to keep things simple and avoid heavy JS frameworks.
I'd love feedback from developers here — especially about features you'd expect from something like this.
Thanks!

You can now create a jot directly from the terminal:
curl -X POST https://jotspot.io/api/v1/jots/text \ --data-binary @notes.md
or even:
echo "Hello world" | curl -X POST https://jotspot.io/api/v1/jots/text --data-binary @-
Each jot also has a raw endpoint: https://jotspot.io/j/<id>.txt
