How it works
- You login using a passphrase which produces a hash value of 32 bytes
- First 16 bytes is your authentication key used in API calls when sending data back and forth
- Next 16 bytes is your encryption key used to encrypt that text data
- Encryption key never leaves your browser.

To-do list
- rewrite frontend to use TypeScript
- use websockets to better support multiple sessions editing same document scenarios
- add option to use Redis for storing notes
- ability to use this app via command line
- update the editor to allow subdivision of long text into multiple subsections via linebreaks
