Hello, developer here.

Quick tech rundown:

This is implemented as a Google Chrome extension, i.e. it's implemented using web frontend tech, using a custom injected agent program injected into note-possible websites (= every URL that's not a browser-internal "page"). The UI is implemented in a React.js + Redux combination. It's authenticated by the slimmest possible Python + Flask web backend using OAuth2 via Google I felt I could get away with.

Post tech questions here if you're curious and I'll try to answer them or tweet at me (I'm https://twitter.com/jacob414).

We built Juntoo for front-end devs & projects managers as a tool to use together and with other team members to manage visual feedback together in web projects in a different way than through screenshots.

With this tool, PM can stick comments with change requests to different DOM elements (so it also works on responsive designs) making it easier for the front-end dev to understand where and what needs to be changed.
