The core loop is small enough for a capable coding agent to produce a useful local version in one sitting. For Supernotes, capture small linked cards, tag them, and review or share focused collections. The hard boundary is real-time collaboration, mobile polish, sync, and card-based workflow refinement, plus sync, collaboration, and capture polish.

Build a fully functional, local-first personal replacement for Supernotes in an empty repository, focusing on atomic, card-based networked note-taking. Use Tauri 2, React, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS (or robust vanilla CSS with a design system), SQLite, and Markdown files as the primary source of truth. Do not offer alternative stacks. The core loop revolves around capturing small, linked "atomic" note cards, tagging them, and organizing them into focused collections rather than long-form documents. Data Architecture: - Store all user data locally. One Markdown file per note card. - Maintain a fast SQLite index that parses markdown frontmatter, tags, and links, which can be rebuilt at any time from the markdown files. - Put any required API keys in .env, ship .env.example, never commit credentials. Core Features & Interactions: - Card-based UI: Display notes in a masonry or grid layout of cards. Each card is short, focused, and independently editable. - Bidirectional Linking & Backlinks: Support `[[wiki-style]]` links. When viewing a card, show all other cards that link to it at the bottom. - Hierarchy & Tagging: Allow nesting cards or grouping them via tags (e.g., `#idea`, `#project/supernotes`). Provide a sidebar to filter by these tags. - Capture at the Speed of Thought: Implement a fast global keyboard shortcut to open a quick-capture overlay for creating new note cards instantly. - Visual Graph/Heatmap View: Include a visual network graph showing how cards connect, or a heatmap calendar for daily capture activity. - Markdown Rendering: Support GitHub Flavored Markdown, task lists, code blocks, tables, and local image attachments inline within cards. UI & Aesthetics: - Use a premium, modern design with a glassmorphism feel, subtle micro-animations (e.g., when hovering over or expanding a card), and a highly polished dark mode. - Implement a command palette (`Cmd/Ctrl + K`) for keyboard-first actions: search, create, rename, move, and link. Robustness & Edge Cases: - Detect external file changes (if a markdown file is edited outside the app) and safely resolve conflicts. - Provide a clear, one-click export to a standard Markdown folder, and robust import capabilities. - Handle empty states beautifully (e.g., "Create your first thought"), include loading skeletons, and graceful error boundaries. Tests & Documentation: - Write focused tests for markdown-to-SQLite transformation and one end-to-end happy path for creating and linking a card. - Create a comprehensive README detailing setup, architecture, permissions, and data location. Exclusions: - Deliberately leave out proprietary sync servers, real-time multiplayer, and billing. Finish by running the tests and listing the exact commands used.
