Research direction

Read src/components/notes/template-preview.tsx and src/components/notes/notes-editor.tsx first. Compare the current lightweight preview with the real editor and determine how read-only rendering and unavailable database blocks should behave. Done means template previews use the real editor where appropriate, remain non-editable, and preserve a usable preview before page creation.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement

Clicking a template now opens a read-only preview (TemplatePreview) that renders the template's block structure with a lightweight custom renderer. It's fast and structurally accurate, but not pixel-identical to the created page (databases show as labeled placeholders, columns are simplified).

Optionally render the preview by mounting the real NotesEditor in read-only mode so it looks exactly like the resulting page. Trade-off: heavier (mounts BlockNote) and database blocks have no real DB until creation, so they'd need a preview/disabled state.

Files: src/components/notes/template-preview.tsx, src/components/notes/notes-editor.tsx (add a read-only mode).
