Kraa – Writing App for Everything

Hello HN! We're a team of three building a new kind of web-based markdown editor. There are many editors out there, so one is spoiled for choice, but Kraa's approach is a little different. It's trying to be both a minimal and distraction-free experience while being feature-rich and allowing for tons of use cases. What Kraa's good for: - Distraction-free writing & reading (minimal UI, performant, styling logic completely separated from the editing experience) - Quick sharing of any written text – compared to many other writing tools, your content can be easily shared just by posting a link…

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hello HN! We're a team of three building a new kind of web-based markdown editor. There are many editors out there, so one is spoiled for choice, but Kraa's approach is a little different. It's trying to be both a minimal and distraction-free experience while being feature-rich and allowing for tons of use cases. What Kraa's good for: - Distraction-free writing & reading (minimal UI, performant, styling logic completely separated from the editing experience) - Quick sharing of any written text – compared to many other writing tools, your content can be easily shared just by posting a link and giving 'read' or 'edit' access (we also have password-protection) - Real-time chat / communities – Kraa has some unique features around real-time editing and our Chat widget allows for a frictionless chat experience. No send button. - Kraa works well on mobile (though dedicated apps are planned) --- Demo examples (all live, no login needed): Blog article: https://kraa.io/kraa/examples/echolibrary Long-form story: https://kraa.io/kraa/examples/insidekick Magazine: https://kraa.io/weeklyinspiration Kraa is built on top of ProseMirror (and TipTap) and Svelte. You don’t need an account to try Kraa. We’d really appreciate your thoughts and feedback!

    Community, All the HN belong to you. This is an archive of hacker news that fits in your browser. When I made HN Made of Primes I realized I could probably do this offline sqlite/wasm thing with the whole GBs of archive. The whole dataset. So I tried it, and this is it. Have Hacker News on your device. Go to this repo (https://github.com/DOSAYGO-STUDIO/HackerBook): you can download it. Big Query -> ETL -> npx serve docs - that's it. 20 years of HN arguments and beauty, can be yours forever. So they'll never die. Ever. It's the unkillable static archive of HN and it's…
