Similar to Sycon

File System Access API Local MarkDown Editor

A Markdown editor that opens and saves files directly on your device, built as a demo of the browser's File System Access API. Useful for writers who want to edit local Markdown documents in a browser, and for developers studying how the API handles local file workflows.

Overleaf

Online LaTeX editor with real-time collaboration. Write academic papers, theses, and technical documents in LaTeX without installing anything. The standard for academic publishing. Compilation happens server-side with a full TeX Live distribution, so a package never has to be installed locally.

Notepad

A quick, distraction-free notepad that runs in the browser and keeps working offline, powered by a service worker. It aims to be a lightweight scratchpad for jotting down text without the weight of a full note-taking suite like Evernote or Notion.

ONLYOFFICE DocSpace

Open-source office suite with pixel-perfect DOCX/XLSX/PPTX compatibility. Self-hostable or cloud. The best free replacement for Google Docs when you need perfect Microsoft format support. Formulas, macros and track-changes survive a round trip through Office, which is where most alternatives break.

Papermark

Open-source DocSend alternative — share documents with analytics. See who viewed your pitch deck and for how long. Self-hostable, no per-link fees. Links can expire or require an email, so a deck sent to one investor cannot quietly circulate to others.

📽️
Gamma

Describe what you need and Gamma builds the deck — AI-generated presentations, documents and simple websites with design taken care of, exportable to PowerPoint or PDF. The web app declares a minimal-ui manifest, so it installs from the browser as its own window. Free tier includes AI credits to start.
