Great! Would it make sense to do that with the draft specifications and
loose ideas before you have anything running? If it's a significant
effort I'd think it wouldn't be worth doing, but if you're writing stuff
out anyway and organising it for your own use, and if you have an HTML
editor that doesn't much get in your way, is there much to lose?
