It's not that hard to write a website, why do I need this?

For you, maybe you don’t need it. But for non-devs, or even devs who want to spin up something quick without boilerplate, it cuts the time from hours to seconds. It’s not about difficulty — it’s about flow.

Do you use em dashes regularly? Do you have a button on your keyboard for them? Did you just use AI to write this?

Yes-I use the dashes a lot.

There’s also a Help section — just press the button in the upper-right corner of TextSite, and you can copy/paste the sample text straight from there.

For your reference:

Windows/Linux → Ctrl C + Ctrl V

Mac → ⌘ C + ⌘ V
