Re: T/OT: Vibe coding a Windows notes app with Claude



Yes, it fired right up and ran. The markdown part worked. I made a few tweaks. Don't know what Chromium would do. Is that for printing?

Re Mint Cinnamon, Claude says:
Work; the four exceptions I mentioned (lock keys silently no-op, drive-letter syntax irrelevant, X/XY uses sh syntax, styled PDF needs chromium-browser installed) are the only places he should notice anything different from Windows.

A couple of small heads-up items if you  run into them:


install python3-tk does it


PDF export starts working
editor will look slightly different (typically Sans/Mono Sans rather than Segoe UI/Consolas) - Options
thing that almost always yields one or two surprises. If you hit 
anything unexpected - a crash, a feature that visually breaks, an 
obviously-Windows assumption in a place Claude missed - let me know 
and I'll have Claude sort it out.
