Write

A web-based writing app based on Flowstate. Built using React.

The premise is simple. You set a duration during which you write; within that duration, if you stop typing for more than 5 seconds, all your progress is lost.

The typical use case of Flowstate is to avoid writer's block and get something down in writing. Personally, I've been using it for journalling; it's been a good exercise getting all of my thoughts, latent or prominent, down in writing. The duration has also helped me keep a consistent routine; if I know it's only going to be fifteen minutes every session, it's easier to sit down and get through it.

Setup Instructions

This app was scaffolded using create-react-app and then ejected.

In order to run it locally, clone this repository, run npm install, and then either:

  • run node scripts/start.js to start a local server
  • run node scripts/build.js to create a production-optimized build

Roadmap

Have suggestions/ideas for improvement? Feel free to submit them in the form of an issue (pull requests also welcome).

  • Setting up DNS for write.itskrish.co (formerly accessible at write.surge.sh)
  • Refactoring storage from localStorage to a backwards-compatible ORM-esque system.
  • Refactoring timekeeping with system time instead of setTimeout.
  • Setting up benchmarking + optimizing for speed.
  • Packaging as an Electron (Desktop) app.
