Hi HN! I built WireMD, a text-first wireframing tool that lets you design UIs as fast as you can type.The core idea: wireframes should be version-controlled, reviewable in PRs, and editable without leaving your code editor/markdown editor.Outputs in multiple formats including for example html (different styles), tailwind and jsonCurious what HN thinks about the syntax design and whether this fills a gap in your workflow!
