My initial idea was imagining a typewriter with disappearing ink. Doing some research I came across some apps that use a similar general idea, and Enzo was indeed one of them. But none of them did it exactly like I was picturing, so I decided to make one.
I’ve found that while trying to write down the ideas in my head, it’s very easy for me to lose my train of thought if I edit while I write, which I can’t seem to help but doing. Not being able to go back at all, or to glance at anything I’ve already written, has helped me keep my inner dialogue moving without interruption. It felt odd at first, but I very quickly got used to not editing myself.
Yeah, I apologize for the Android bugs. I’d mostly intended for it to be a desktop app, and tested it on Linux and Mac, then did a couple mobile additions and tested it on iOS. I didn’t expect that Android would behave so much differently, particularly since it’s all in a browser, so that was pretty naive.
I’ve downloaded Android Studio for testing, so I’ll get to work figuring out where the bug is coming from.
Thank you for the comment. I’ve thought of adding auto save. I think my initial reason for not including it was that, if you can’t see what you’ve written, how would you know if you’re typing into a new blank doc or a previous auto save? It’s something I’ll think more on.
Oh wow, I hadn’t come across this one while researching. As soon as I looked at it I felt pretty bad thinking someone had already built something exactly like mine 7 years ago. But playing around with it, it seems different enough that I don’t feel like I now need to toss mine in the trash. Phew.
Aw, sorry to hear that. I remember encountering that bug a while back and was happy when I figured out a way to squash it. Admittedly I tested this app in browsers on Linux, Mac, and on an iPhone, but not Android. So I'll get a hold of an Android device and figure out a way to re-squash the backwards bug. Thanks for the heads up.
Thanks! Do you mean you’d like to be able to input any number you like?
The numbered values are editable inputs. You can click into them and type in the amount you’d like. If you couldn’t tell they were editable inputs, that’s valuable feedback! I’ll redesign them to make it more obvious that you can do so, and don’t have to just click the +/- buttons.
Thank you so much for the comment. I have never heard of OKLCH before. I've been trying to think of another color project to work on, and I think I might explore in this direction. Again, thanks!
edit Nevermind, I've found it. I'll get to work on that and have it sorted out.
