Landing page

Write a landing page for users that are not logged in.
Also, it should be possible to go back to that landing page

Rename to Codocs / CODOCS

Personal Workspace

After you login, you are forwarded to your personal workspace. The personal workspace shows your pinned documents. It cannot be seen / shared with different accounts.

• Created documents are added to the personal workspace
• It is possible to unpin documents
• It is possible to pin documents to the personal workspace (when receiving a read-only or read-write link). See #18
• It is possible to organize the personal workspace. I.e. move pinned documents to a different position. See #19

Organize personal workspace (change order of pinned documents)

It is possible to organize the personal workspace. I.e. move pinned documents to a different position.

Markdown+ document type

Implement Markdown+ document type. It should be similar to stackedit.io

Pin documents to personal workspace

It should be possible to pin documents to the personal workspace (when receiving a read-only or read-write link)

Improve page load

It is okay-ish for users that have active service workers. Improve the first page load

codocs.y-js.org has no content

Even after signing in with google I get only a heading reading "Home". Am I missing something or is there merely nothing, as of yet?

Fix view modus

Image drawing document type

Useful for writing on tablets.

The first implementation should only have basic featurs:

• color
• erase

Maybe write a dedicated Web Component for this

Bug: two instances open results in weird errors

Increase ace editor size use full size

Create Logo (icon + CoDocs artwork)

latex - show load bar when loading the tex distribution

Load when data already available

Configure y-webworker in a way that it loads instantly if data is already available

Style **share** dialog

Fix issue template

Write a useful issue template

Write readme
