Hey @Stvad some comments:

1. the README.md for the extension is visible to users (in the help menu or when installing the extension in Roam Depot Marketplace), could you make the readme clearer considering that? For example, starting with "Roam Research Extension:" is not required)

2. I really like this extension, feels like such a simple solution to a common problem! But named as it is right now (i.e. "Create a new Block on a Daily page Roam Shortcut"), I would not be able to find it. Have you considered other names? Some names ChatGPT suggested "Capture on the Fly", "Jot in the Sidebar", "Quick thoughts", "Quick random thoughts", "Capture random thought"

3. More on 2, I would add some tags like "quick capture", "new note" in the extension json file. I would also change the "short_description" to be something like "Allows a quick-capture experience without having to change context of whatever you're working on. Just press a hotkey and start typing!"

4. Instead of your bespoke solution for hotkeys, can you use extensionAPI.ui.commandPalette.addCommand? That way, users can also change the hotkey if they want a different one. (you want to be sure to pass the default-hotkey prop)

5. More re: hotkeys, I see that the hotkey is ctrl-shift-n. This is fine for mac, but pretty sure it tries to open new private window on Windows/Linux. Can you have a different one for windows/linux?
   i. I think alt-n might be a good one (corresponds to "Open daily notes" which is ctrl-shift-d in Mac and alt-d in windows/linux)
   ii. you probably want to do window.roamAlphaAPI.platform.isPC ? "alt-n" : "ctrl-shift-n" as the value to default-hotkey
