This internal demo might be of interest to the HN crowd.

We are building a git-like change control system called lix that can store different file formats.

Why?

- file-based software is amazing because of interop and data ownership

- storing a file in change control makes a file collaborative, eliminating the need for "the cloud"

- we can solve globalization of software with an interoperable system of apps

Were building a prompt management tool internally, here devs and domain experts needed to work on the same files. Wanted to save the time to build a cloud backend for that, so was already doing that with git to get version management and good integration for devs, but had to build a couple workarounds. Yours looks a lot better. This could be huge.
