A note-taking app backend using Rust (sh.itjust.works)

Hi everyone I was thinking of creating a backend module that has functione for a note taking app (search, sort, etc). So anyone can implement a ui on top of it.

I have some basic understanding of rust (made a just-working chip-8 emulator). But I've never used SQL or other database.

Is this plausible? Is there a similar project that I can use as reference? What are the mistakes I should avoid?

Don't really care if anyone would use it at the moment. My main goal right now is to improve my rust skills. And I guess there are limitations to how much ui you can change in obsidian.

Also there are other contexts where a note taking like function would be needed. For example I was actually trying to make a note taking app for cosmic desktop which I can access from the Taskbar
