My thoughts are like this:

- There’s a desktop client
- There’s an android/iOS client
- There’s a CLI client

They all operate via SYNC functionality.

So in order for collaboration to happen, or to have something like Evernote, all that’s missing is a `web server` which operates on the same SYNC functionality that will act as a `web client`.

For collaboration on the web client you can have:

- Owner user/password
- Invited user with password
- password-less access to notes (public)
- anyone with password can access

like the CLI, nodejs can be leveraged. Some framework like hapijs, fastifyjs or whatever.

If set up right, the web server could be deployed on [Heroku.com](http://Heroku.com) for example (would be free for this use-case) or if you have your own server.
