    Hey! I recently released my first open-source app and wanted to share it here. :)

    Draftify is a desktop app (mac) to write passing ideas and thoughts. It is meant as a canvas to reduce any friction to write, rather than being a place to archive notes (i.e. to write drafts).

    I believe there are amazing notes apps out there (Notions, Obsidian, ...) but I wanted an app that I can just open and start writing without worrying about where to create a new note/page, polishing it, or worrying where to place it.

    Anyway, I hope you'll like it! Follow me on twitter to stay up to date about it and other products: https://twitter.com/frabia__

    PS. the app is built with Electron, which I know some people aren't fond of. I personally don't mind (also and the app is both super quick and I followed all the security recommendations). I might move it to Tauri in the future to make it more lightweight, but it's not a priority atm.
