In plain words

Penflip is a collaborative writing platform designed for authors and writers. It applies version control and collaboration concepts familiar to developers—similar to GitHub's approach—to the writing process. The service allows multiple writers to work on documents simultaneously, track changes, manage revisions, and maintain a history of edits. It's intended for anyone who wants to streamline collaborative writing projects with tools typically found in software development.

That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
