Why I built it
Reading and marking up PDFs often means uploading files to a cloud service; Inkly keeps the whole edit on the device.
What it does
- Reader with open, zoom, page navigation, page indicator, and share
- Editor to add text, append and move or resize images, draw rectangles, and pick colors from a tools drawer
- Save or share as PDF, flattening overlays onto the pages as a new file
- Version gate via a Cloudflare Worker that can nudge, force an update, or ban a build, failing open on network error
How it is built
Built with Flutter, positioning overlay items as page fractions so they stay correct at any zoom, with a small Cloudflare Worker gating app versions and builds.
