Day 4 of 12 Days of Svelte Apps 🎄

When things get hectic, Markdown keeps your plans:

• structured
• readable
• easy to reuse
• easy to share (or keep private)

Why you don’t need a complicated system

• Headings to chunk your life into sections
• Checkboxes for “done / not done”
• Links for tickets, receipts, wishlists, and recipes

Bonus: The editor auto‑saves your content to localStorage, so you can close the tab and come back later without losing your work.
