Damn, would be actually pretty good for diagramming in markdown etc. Recently when writing my wiki in vim I've wished for more tools than just text. Sometimes text really becomes a blocker, and you wish for at least some level of code execution, latex, and of course diagrams.
I understand the fatigue from a million vibe-coded tools being posted on HN and Reddit. I feel the same. But, your concern made me think and question something else.
> will just be abandoned in 6 months.
What is wrong with accepting tools as "done" software, particularly if they are open source? Someone had an interesting enough idea and are showcasing it _easier than before_ because of AI assistance. What if we took them at face value (treating it as a good prototype that works as-is) and basically take ownership for personal needs?
I've been forking projects that I really liked enough to use, and tell myself that if I get enough value out of it, I will tinker with it and develop it the way I want. After all, I have AI subscriptions myself to do things my way. If I care for software quality more than fast prototyping, nothing stops me from spending a month meticulously re-writing that software just the way I want paying attention to the details I care about.
Not sure where I was going with it. Just my thoughts.
This is the least vibe-coded looking thing I have seen in weeks on HN. Not sure if you looked at the repo or if you’re just fatigued from all the slop. Commits look simple and the README is short and purposeful.

Competition! :) (though mine is GUI with custom renderer)

At this point, GitHub is now polluted with vibe-coded slop like this these days. We all know that these tools will just be abandoned in 6 months.
