Show HN: Annotate and share ArXiv papers - Smort.io

Hey HN,

Smort lets you easily edit, annotate, share and save ArXiv papers and articles! Just add smort.io/ before a URL to read it in Smort. No login needed!

Here is a demo- https://www.smort.io/demo/home

I posted a Show HN for the v1 in March [1]. The v2 is a major upgrade and lets you save articles permanently and read arXiv papers natively in Smort rather than handling PDFs. All ArXiv papers released up till 20th May 2022 can be parsed.

When I was a grad student, I found it hard to collaborate on arXiv papers and share my annotations, so I built Smort to solve a problem I faced. Smort can be used instead of Github to host your annotated papers collection and share it with the world!
