SvelteDoc

What is SvelteDoc?

Think of Google doc (without the whole collaboration complexity) with a twist that all the documents you create are open to everyone to find and leave comments.

Something like youtube but for documents or github gists. Making it public by default sounds wierd however I believe open source and collaboration is becoming the acceptable norm.

Why does it matter?

I studied computer science in russian language and as a foreign student it was diffcult for me to keep up with the lecturer while he/she dictates during a lecture. In order to stay up to date I would ask for the notebook of a course mate or take a picture of everything written by that student, then when I got home, I would have to copy everything into my notebook.

This was so time consuming and I don't want anyone to have to go through this. My idea was what if every note taken by all students in the lesson is made public to everyone? I have been thinking about this project for a long time now and I felt now is the best time to build the MVP.
