I was inspired by @FineFindus and @hbons to post a bit more on what I'm working on, so here goes!!

I have been working on [Peachy](https://gitlab.gnome.org/vixalien/peachy), a small framework to write GNOME/Linux applications with GTK and React (yes!).

For dogfooding, I've been prototyping a little Hacker News client, since they have a nice and free API with a small scope.

Through the way, I've been adding features to Peachy such as supporting List/Grid views, polyfills etc

@FineFindus @hbons I've also been working VERY slowly on a rewrite of [Sticky Notes](https://flathub.org/en/apps/com.vixalien.sticky).

The upcoming version will store notes as markdown, meaning the data will be easier to store/backup/sync across different devices and applications.

Currently, I've managed to implement storing an AST of the notes, and syncing it with the GTK text view widget.

An advantage of Peachy is that it allows us to use regular* npm packages, in this case we are using the markdown parser from the Lezer/Codemirror project (https://lezer.codemirror.net/)!
