Supplementing the minimalist nature of this utility are a set of zen like visuals, ambient soundscapes and smooth interactions, contributing to a sense of intimacy with the writing environment, making this text editor a pure joy to use. Yes, as someone who writes mostly in TextEdit or Mail to stir away from distracting, unpredictable word editor user interfaces that ‘know better’ than you what word you supposedly wanted to write, I find minimal, feature-poor text editors very appealing. How very timely it was to hear from my inspiring friend at Barcelona based Herraiz Soto & Co about Ommwriter, their new feature-poor, experience-rich text editor. While interesting to think of a website’s design as the narrative, rather than website as an environment for narratives, it is acknowledged that this space engages people mostly with its written content and that it is high time to add new notes on design and creative stuff. This webspace has become a living canvas with a story that unfolds over time in visual rather than verbal form.

Every few months I’d spend a couple of days revisiting the design, adding elements and removing others the brown paper has experienced age over time, and like me, has a couple more creases and blemishes then it did when the website was first published online but the most substantial upgrade has been its recent elevation into a more imaginative headspace. In fact, over this period the site has experienced incremental design refinements. And while my written musings have been shared in other places, this space has not been left untouched during this time.

(If you still want to write you posts in Microsoft Word, be our guest - just use the “paste from Word” button to avoid a majority of the maddening format issues that come with cut-and-paste.) If you like the noise but not the crowds, Coffitivity pipes a café into your living room. It’s especially useful with headphones if you like the energy but not the soundtrack that comes with coffee shop-blogging.

aiWriter also offers distraction-free writing along with a few other bells and whistles, like support for Markdown. What sets Ommwriter apart from other text editors is its ability to help the writer develop a peaceful environment that is free from distractions. (Available for Macs, iPads, and PCs pay what you want.)

I’m loving it for playful free-writing time. OmmWriter blocks out everything on your screen except your words and adds soft backgrounds to suit your moods, with audio tracks or keystroke sounds to focus your fingers. Sometimes writing is meditative, and this distraction-free writing app takes that to the next level. Here are a few that tickle our editorial fancy: That’s okay, there are times when we don’t, either - times when we want to write while offline, or make use of a feature in another app.

When you start to type, everything other than your words fades out. To turn it on, click on the “Toggle Full Screen” button (it’s the one that looks like an oversized “X” - second from the right in the top row). In the visual editor, you can turn on distraction-free writing to strip the page down to only the publishing basics. Now, you can type Markdown right into the text editor and your hands don’t have to leave the keyboard while constructing a post. ( Get the details here.) If you like Markdown, enable your blog to use it under Settings > Writing. Markdown is a way of adding formatting like links, headings, and bulleted lists right from the keyboard with simple additions like asterisks to *bold* text or underscores to create headings. There are two often-overlooked options baked into the post editor on : support for Markdown, and distraction-free writing.
