Syntax looks cool. Would have expected proper syntax highlighting in the website (and plugin for IDEs). The website is currently too convoluted until you see actual syntax would highly suggest having code block at the front. See for good reference the landing page of ruby: https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/

The rich and complex history of spreadsheets inspired me to build React Spreadsheet. Along the way I deepened (and others) understanding of the complexities and intricacies of spreadsheets https://iddan.github.io/react-spreadsheet
The regular ones are okay. The watchlist is diabolical. Unvoted as soon as I saw the watchlist.
So we are reinventing the docs /*/*.md directory? /s I think this is a good idea just don’t really get why would you need a tool around it
