AI Markdown Journal

A markdown notebook with an AI sidekick — summarise, fix grammar, extract action items.

Summary

A full-stack markdown journal with split-pane live preview, auto-save, and an AI panel that summarises notes, fixes grammar, and pulls action items into a checklist.

The problem

Markdown editors are great for capture and terrible for reflection. The AI panel turns a journal into a thinking tool: summarise the week, polish the email draft, surface the buried action items.

Approach

  1. 01Express 5 + Mongoose backend, Vite + React frontend.
  2. 02Slide-in review panel applies AI suggestions diff-style.
  3. 03Mock AI service swap-in for any provider via a single interface.

Highlights

  • ·Split-pane editor with live markdown render
  • ·Debounced auto-save
  • ·AI panel: summarise, fix grammar, extract todos
  • ·Mock AI layer — pluggable to OpenAI/Anthropic
