Description
It it always bugged me when I read or share an article, the discussion lives separately from the article. I imagined being able to add Google-Docs or Notion style comments on any website. We save a snapshot of the website and allow adding discussions that live side-by-side and directly reference parts of the article.HN articles are automatically indexed in https://cooo.link/hackernewsand you can add any website, PDFs on https://cooo.link/Built with SvelteKit, SingleFile(for archiving page), Railway. Solo dev. Would love feedback if you found it interesting! Thanks

Could you build this?
Yes This is essentially an iframe/snapshot proxy viewer paired with a commenting system linked to DOM element selectors and text ranges, easily built with standard web tooling.
