   I checked out Typora today - there are a lot of promising capabilities, especially as you can customize the theme / style sheets. Very cool app, that I would consider revisiting. Paid / requires a license, so its out of scope for

   Completely agree - without getting too dramatic, for such an important open standard (HTML) its surprising we don't have a open-source locally-run easy to use, visual authoring tool for HTML websites (and I'll throw Markdown in th

    Logseq doesn't seem to be able to edit an HTML file. I checked out Logseq when I was considering Obsidian, and I found it quite complicated (it seems closer to Workflowy...). I'd love to see something like this succeed... Pinegrow

    This seems to be a local CMS - but you can't just edit "dumb" HTML files. Seems like a page has be inside of a blog/site you setup, and then the system "publishes" it. Looking for something thats not a blog pu

    First off - this is a very interesting app, and the interface is clean. I think this would actually be useful in many contexts. However, I'm looking for something that's less of a local CMS, and more of just... a document editor w

    Does it have a WYSIWYG editor mode? Looks like it just edits the code text, but doesn’t show the styled doc…?

    This looks interesting- have you tried it? What’s your experience been like? Update: Just tried this out. It seems to require you already have a remote blog setup (e.g. Wordpress), and you can't make a local site of static HTML, nor ca

    I gave LibreOffice an honest try - thinking that “I’ll tolerate a few warts, invest in my tools - especially open source”. I used it for 10 minutes, and decided to uninstall it. While editing a document, I got weird rendering errors, interf

    How do you actually render / style the Markdown documents, site? I was thinking to lean into something similar with VS Code - the hypothesis being that VSC is widely used, open source, and a powerful text editor. Have you / others

    Yes - this is what I’m aiming for. For example; I’m imagining an “article” is just a folder with HTML, with images & media within it - a self contained doc which ought to be usable for decades.

    I was surprised to see this functionality and tried it - it does technically work… but for authoring, the formatting tools don’t include styles (eg H1), just in-line formatting (bold, etc). I looked at the HTML output, and it added quite a
