textarea.my is a minimalist in-browser text editor that stores your entire document inside the URL hash, turning a note into something you can share simply by copying a link. Instead of relying on accounts, servers, or synced backends, it keeps content client-side and uses compression so even longer notes remain practical to embed in a URL. This design makes it ideal for quick drafts, short markdown notes, and lightweight sharing where you want “send a link” simplicity without exporting files. It supports markdown-friendly workflows and includes small quality-of-life behaviors like using a top-level markdown title to set the page title for a cleaner browser tab. It also leans into hackable customization by letting you change the look using CSS via DevTools, and those style tweaks can persist with the document. Beyond the URL, it also stores data in localStorage, providing a second layer of persistence for convenience.

Features
