Show HN: Dev tools inspired site editor

Hey. This is really lovely, well done - an amazing, really easy to use, very intuitive tool. With my nerd hat on I definitely want to be able to export - I can&#x27;t pin anything at all on a hosted service that I have no exit strategy from. I&#x27;m sure you&#x27;ll be around forever - but, you know, there&#x27;s no way I could build a client site on this or even one for myself without having that available to me.<p>One thing that would be really nice is to have a &quot;publish to [netlify][github pages][sftp][other]&quot; option...<p>Also - templating.<p>But from a UI &#x2F; ease of use &#x2F; flexibility point of view - amazing :-)

Intuitive? I&#x27;m not sure. Its still got a learning curve. When you say &quot;inspired by modern browser&#x27;s dev tools&quot; and given the HN audience I was expecting something that didn&#x27;t hide the actual HTML as much. For example the element picker in browser&#x27;s dev tools will show the tag name as the title when you hover over an element vs you abstracting it away to things like &quot;Text&quot; which then have a &quot;Text tag&quot; which has you select a human readable definition of the tag.<p>Is this dev tools inspired or Wix inspired? It feels more like Wix than dev tools.<p>Is any of that bad? Maybe not but its what I (because of my background) was expecting; something closer to HTML because there isn&#x27;t an onboarding story and dev tools was mentioned. I think you need an integrated tutorial as part of the initial experience. Either tutorial overlays or maybe replacing the lipsum with instructional text, something.<p>The publish site feature, its not well explained what that does. I think some users would expect a site builder tool to be able to provide a zip or even sftp the pages somewhere. I think the only option here is to host with your service but it should be spelled out. Again, probably related to having the editor as a starting point with no on-boarding.<p>It seems like a slick tool. Basic page editing doesn&#x27;t seem challenging. I think to really test it would require that the tester build some complex sites with the tool. Consider paying for testers to do that along with post-build interviews. It might help identify workflow issues. If you have some free users building complex pages maybe just offer them a free upgrade if they&#x27;ll let you pick their brain on a zoom session.
