As mentioned if plain text is your goal it would be really nice if there were some way to serve the content as plain HTML as a backup
Yes, plain text to create it not displayed as plain text. I didn’t write the post so the title may be a little misleading. Flashy JS heavy output for minimal input is the point.
Taken to the extreme, I think it becomes more apparent which choice is better.
Bring back the back button!
Very plain text! But I'm not sure what the point was.
Perhaps they meant "...in the browser on your phone."
This seems to be all about being flashy and JS-heavy, rather than just getting the point across.
When you’ve created something you can publish it and the reader can view it at a URL. The author obviously isn’t trying to get a point across to themselves in the app.
The authoring tool is a web app and does quite a lot so it is JS heavy. It works well on mobile but the demo only works in landscape as the mobile version is slimmed down so you do have to rotate your phone.
Seems like an interesting project and I can see the appeal to markdown aficionados (me among them, although I don't currently have much need to do presentations)!
