Thanks for your note.
My first commits on this project were in November of last year, and I only really started developing it actively last month. I didn't post here on HN, and I think that's premature.
To fill in with a hint that the UI itself should provide: There's no such thing as changing text of a draft in Proseline. Rather, you can create a new draft based on an old one, edit, and save. The relevant "Start a new draft based on this one." button is buried a bit at the bottom of draft pages right now.
- RobertRoberts 9y agoYes, it would be good to tweak the layout a bit to make it more obvious on how the workflow should be. Starting over from a new copy every time doesn't fit with my understanding of either normal document editing or even GIT. This almost seems like "block-chain" <sigh>, it's that's appropriate. Therefore, it wasn't intuitive automatically on how to use the tool. I have a friend who edits my work, and it's good to have someone help you see the forest through the trees, especially on interface design. (though I often don't like the suggestions, they are mostly right)
- kemitchell 9y agoI've had some wonderful feedback from other folks, both for what to do about the editor experience, and also what to do about the UI, to make things more intuitive. Looking forward to spending more time on it soon.
