This is even greater! Text editors are not about code only, you know. Remember this¹? Released less than two weeks ago: Github now renders prose diffs. Why? What if Github is going for an Office (or at least a Word) replacement? Author your blog, thesis, paper, novel, whatever, in a single polyvalent multiplatform editor, with the auto-versioned source stored in the cloud (Github’s), then use it as a feed for your blog, newspaper production flow, or other automated publishing environment… Hope the fine people at the likes of Draftin.com, Etherpad.org, Penflip.com, Prose.io, et many alii, will survive this. The much acclaimed Editorially.com closed its doors already. Maybe the visionary folks at Substance.io might consider to start negotiating an acquihire. I feel both exhilarated and a bit jealous: I know for sure I’ll need to put another side-project of mine down. [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7240122 |
