The idea if freaking great, and beautifully executed, I will try to use it myself and share it as much as possible, that said, I have two problems before I start using it.

I don't think I will be able to do so for my work without the ability to export... (Just as an idea, when exporting to a pdf, for example, the embedded youtube videos should be turned into links instead).

Finally, I would need an option for the guides to be private/shareable, otherwise we would be limited in the things we could use it for, maybe that could be a premium paid service, that could be a reasonable monetizing strategy (github like).

But again, I'm excited about this tool and think it has great potential. Thanks for this!

Hey, thanks for the input! As I've said before, export and offline access are both on our TODO.

Your comments on private vs public guides are great. It's something we discussed and we will put a lot of thought into getting this part right.

Most people can print to PDF at this point, you could delay working on something more complicated for exporting by investing a few minutes in fixing your print stylesheet. It already looks almost correct, just a few overlaps.
Awesome, congrats on the app again, I hope you make the most out of it!

I'm interested in knowing what kind of technologies is this built on, do you have a technical blog or some technical data anywhere?

You can check out my personal blog at ozkatz.github.io - I'll be writing about it soon, probably.
