Couple of things: - Items don't reflow when you remove them? I only added loads of notes and removed the top two, but the rest stayed off the screen.
Also, I'd set
.workspace { overflow: hidden}
- Notes should be clamped to screen. There seems to be no limit to how far off screen I can drag something, after which I cannot bring it back (unless I create another note).
- It would be nice if there was some way to snap the notes along a grid so that it's easier to arrange things neatly.
- Collapsible notes would be nice (e.g. collapsing the note so that only the header is visible). Right now each tab has a very limited amount of space.
There really needs to be a way to change the order of to-do's.
What happens to deleted to-do's? Gone forever?
Also CodeOwl combined with graphviz (as shown here- https://zwischenzugs.com/2017/12/18/project-management-as-co...) would be very cool- to-do list -> dependency diagram with colours updating as items are checked off...
A call to action could be useful. "Welcome to CodeOwl! Create your first note/link now."
Looks nice!

Happy Coding
It looks like you're requesting the URL server-side to provide a preview, you may want to validate the URL before making the request, or catch invalid requests.
What kind of traffic did you get to your site? Did people give it a solid test-drive? Did they offer good suggestions, find bugs, etc?
Thanks.
CodeOwl is not yet supported on small screen resolutions :(

Also, when you are dragging an item, make sure it get's the highers z-index, you don't want the tile you are holding to appear below another one while dragging.
But what does it use for storage? Do you have a backend or is it all browser storage? I assume backend since Firefox never prompted me about using browser storage.
Reason I ask is that all free things come to an end. Just like Taiga.io, which I used before for minor project management.
edit- autosave would be great though. I made all these notes, then left for an hour (without saving), when I came back the page refreshed itself and everything was gone.
I will continue to use it and give you guys feedback. Nice work!
Neat though, agreed with adding a todo to help the user navigate their first time through.
Kanban might also be something to strive for. This should be easily implementable by just adding a column- or grid-layout with title-element at the top, per tab.
Having the option to change the theme of the entire app or dashboard would be very desirable as a feature, at least to me.
I tried it, it's promising. I'd like a desktop app/ browser plugin version too, I think. But don't take just my word for it... I'm not sure I'm a good client for this sort of app (e.g. I don't pay for Evernote, just use it within their "free" limitations)
I couldn't figure out how to exit the full screen interactive code view.
The button to delete a todo and "check" a todo are pretty close together, easy to click the wrong one. maybe move the check to the left side of the text?
adding links is really slow.
Export is the natural downfall of every cloud-solution. Because if people have no way to get their data, many will not bother to bound with a closed up tool.
My app, if you care to take a look now:
