The core loop is buildable, but a dependable replacement becomes a real weekend or multi-day project. For Craft, write visually polished documents, link them, and export a portable personal library. The hard boundary is native apps, sync, publishing, collaboration, and strong block-editor polish, plus sync, collaboration, and capture polish.

Build a local-first, block-based personal document editor inspired by Craft's unique aesthetic and architecture, starting in an empty repository. Use Next.js (App Router), React, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and a robust block-editor framework (e.g., Plate.js or Editor.js). Use IndexedDB for local storage and provide seamless Markdown export. ### Core Features & Value Proposition The goal is to write visually stunning, polished documents effortlessly, structure them via nested pages and bidirectional wiki links, and navigate them instantly. * **Block-Based Architecture:** Every paragraph, image, list, or callout is a distinct block. Users can easily drag, drop, reorder, style, and nest these blocks. * **Aesthetic Excellence:** Emulate a high-end, native feel with smooth micro-animations, tasteful glassmorphism, precise typography (e.g., Inter font), and a refined dark/light mode. The app must look presentation-ready out of the box. * **Visual Polish:** Support document cover images, customizable page widths, and distinct block styles (like highlighted callouts with emojis). * **Knowledge Base Integration:** Support `[[wiki-linking]]` for rapid page creation and referencing. Automatically show a "Backlinks" section at the bottom of each document. * **Daily Notes:** Integrate a subtle calendar for daily journaling and capture. ### UI Layout & Key Interactions * **Collapsible Sidebar:** Features a fast fuzzy-search bar (Cmd+K command palette), Daily Notes access, nested document tree, and pinned items. Use a slightly translucent background. * **Main Editor Canvas:** A distraction-free, margin-rich writing pane. Document titles should be bold and prominent. Hovering over a block should reveal a subtle drag handle (six dots) and a "+" button for rapid block insertion. * **Slash Commands:** Typing `/` must instantly open a beautiful dropdown menu to insert specialized block types (Headers, Checklists, Code snippets, Quotes, Dividers, Images). * **Properties Panel:** A toggleable right sidebar showing document metadata, word count, and a dynamic table of contents. ### Step-by-Step Implementation Instructions 1. **Project Setup:** Initialize a Next.js app with Tailwind CSS. Set up a local IndexedDB wrapper for data persistence. 2. **Data Schema:** Design a JSON schema representing documents as arrays of block objects, alongside metadata (title, timestamps, cover image URL, tags). 3. **Editor Integration:** Implement the core block editor. Prioritize custom rendering for blocks to guarantee premium typography and spacing. 4. **Navigation & Sidebar:** Build the recursive document tree sidebar and dynamic Next.js routes for viewing specific pages. 5. **Linking System:** Implement the Cmd+K command palette for global search. Add parsing for `[[links]]` during text entry to map relationships. 6. **Export Functionality:** Provide an "Export Workspace" feature that converts the block-based JSON into standard Markdown files. Focus exclusively on a premium local experience. Omit cloud sync, multiplayer, and auth. Provide a README.
