A note-taking app backend using Rust (sh.itjust.works)

Hi everyone I was thinking of creating a backend module that has functione for a note taking app (search, sort, etc). So anyone can implement a ui on top of it.

I have some basic understanding of rust (made a just-working chip-8 emulator). But I've never used SQL or other database.

Is this plausible? Is there a similar project that I can use as reference? What are the mistakes I should avoid?

are you asking if someone would use it? probably not. sounds like a lot of work when someone can just use obsidian with plugins to get the ui they wanted

It is difficult to imagine it without an approximate idea of the way of interaction with it.

A common exercise in programming is creating a task list... Which by the way I just searched out of curiosity and I found this as first result, and doesn't look so bad taking a first look https://github.com/dezoito/rust-todo-list

Thanks for that
