Nice! You may also be interested in https://val.town, it's like codepen but for HTTP endpoints. You can make a "val" which just serves the same html blob that you have in this pen and get a direct web URL for free!

I recommend this because codepen is good for sharing and remixing UIs, but if you want a simple webpage which you can access for your Gemini editor, I think val.town will load much faster than accessing the direct or "full page" link of the pen.

Also, once you have a dedicated url, you can start using localStorage and other web APIs to e.g. save drafts between page refreshes.

Here is a idea, why not make a WYSIWYG editor for gemtext. and make it a native software, would be nice for writing gemlogs, what about a obsidian like gemlog editor which also supports git and deploying to tildes
