Furthermore, URL Pages is very much a proof of concept, and should not be relied upon for anything consequential.
Read the code and understand it before using so that you understand any associated risks. The codebase was written with readers in-mind. Since the codebase is intentionally short, it can be read and digested fairly quickly if you have prior experience with client-side web applications.
I originally conceived this as a simple, static CodePen clone, but I felt the "publishing" of pages as URLs was an interesting idea. So I decided to present that aspect of it front and center, even though it wasn't really the point of the project at the beginning. About a year ago, I had a proof of concept version that I ended up using fairly frequently for sharing quick HTML/CSS/JavaScript experiments (never as a means of seriously publishing and sharing censorship-proof content). I found that if its use is limited to that case, it is actually very handy and robust!
