Great start. I think you can improve the way you do dialogue, however. It's super easy to just start writing, but for writers who are used to FinalDraft or similar services, there's a more intuitive way to trigger the transition from action lines to dialogue. Maybe add a function that when you hit tab next to an all caps name, it will automatically push it to a dialogue slug (similar to other services). The only way I got it to work was hitting backspace in front of the actual line of dialogue under the name. Quite literally backwards. Also, since this is a new tool, I recommend you add a suggestion / feature request box somewhere very prominent inside the UI for users to submit ideas or feature requests (like the one I just suggested here).
