Hello everyone!
I'd really love some feedback on this project I am working on. It is a free playwriting tool that runs entirely in your browser. No account, no payments, no install, and no cloud.
Throughout my time writing in school and now as I've gotten older, I've noticed that it's hard to find a free fully-featured tool for writing my plays. The idea here was to make something lightweight and customizable with no attachments. All you have to do is open it and start writing, with everything being saved locally on your computer.
Current Features:
- Structured Act -> Scene -> Line editing
- There are four types of Lines: Direction, Dialogue, Cues
- Character tracking for better user traversal and updating
- Keyboard-driven writing
- You can write freely without using a mouse
- Every Line type has a keyboard shortcut
- Portability
- Export to PDF, FDX, and Fountain
- Import from FDX or Fountain
- Everything is saved locally
- Revision tracking with color marks
- Full customization
- Dark mode
- Customizable shortcuts
- Drag and drop re-ordering
- Find & replace
- Customizable pigment to denote each Line Type
Any feedback is welcome! What's missing, what's confusing, what would make you actually use this? How does this compare with the tools you currently use?
