Hey, thanks so much for the kudos. This is a solid point. I'm going to talk with the team about prioritising an export function.

Each CodeNote is essentially a node of links to that code (and conversations about that code) in other places: VCS Hosts, editors, Slack etc. The generated VCS Host and Slack permalinks are not dependant on us. So we can, at least, create a dump of those in short order.

We use websockets to locate the code in editors, but could easily downgrade these to protocol links (e.g. `vscode:`) that are independent of us also.

What format would be most useful for the dump to be in? JSON, CSV, markdown ...? I'm thinking JSON just from a data organisation perspective?

Thanks for the reply! I think any canonical export format would be valuable and would give users some peace of mind :)
