% id = "01H8V55APDBG6AH2W3RNMX724X"

% id = "01H8V55APD2J58ENT1T0JRJ7H6"
2023-08-20 18:37:00 +02:00

2023-08-27 14:50:46 +02:00
% id = "01H8V55APDGV6PKJKZ16CJ1YXY"
2023-08-20 18:37:00 +02:00

% id = "01H8V55APD1CYZD8GE3AK87QK2"
2023-08-20 18:37:00 +02:00
- they embed a timestamp, which I can use to display the date/time when a branch was written, because I generally `fix` branches right after writing

% id = "01H8V55APDFXW5A5J85HJQP17C"

- this is because it restores your state _as it's loading in_, by using [Web Components](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_components/Using_custom_elements).
