   Simplicity and elegance

   It is very well built with simplicity in mind. There are several themes and all of them look amazing. I love the "typewriter" and "focus" mode. In contrast with other apps that focus the current window and remove all visibility options, Typora goes one step ahead and fades down all other paragraphs as well.

   🏁 Competitors: wereturtle.github.io ghostwriter, iA Writer, MonsterWriter

   👍 Pros:    Beautiful themes|Typewriter mode|Focus mode

• Ruby 3.3's YJIT: Faster While Using Less Memory

  Obviously as an interpreted language, it's never going to be as fast as something like C, Rust, or Go. Traditionally the ruby maintainers have not designed or optimized for pure speed, but that is changing, and the language is definitely faster these days compared to a decade ago. If you like the ruby syntax/language but want the speed of a compiled language, it's also worth checking out Crystal[^1]. It's mostly... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• What languages are useful for contribution to the GNOME project.

  Crystal is a nice language that's not only simple to read and write but performs very well too. And the documentation is amazing as well. Source: 7 months ago

• Jets: The Ruby Serverless Framework

  Ruby is a super fun scripting language. I much prefer it to python when I need something with a little more "ooomph" than bash. It's just...nice...to write in. Ruby performance has come a long way in the last decade as well. There's libraries for pretty much everything. My modern programming toolkit is basically golang + ruby + bash and I am never left wanting. I do find Crystal (https://crystal-lang.org/) really... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Show HN: Lexeme – open-source ChatGPT text editor

  If Lexeme is similar to Typora (https://typora.io), it could be fantastic and might even surpass Typora in terms of quality. On the other hand, if Typora already has these features, it's quite powerful. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Ask HN: How did you migrate off Evernote?

  Evernote was ok for a little bit, but the only thing it really did for me was search... Once I realized that I switched tactics. I organized my life into domains, and got okay at using grep to replace it. My saving grace that I would pay twice for is https://typora.io. Though worth mentioning Apple Notes has come a long way. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Show HN: I've built open-source, collaborative, WYSIWYG Markdown editor

  Typora https://typora.io/ Open source — https://hackmd.io/ I’ve used all three, the first two are are WYSIWYG. All are collaborative. HackMD has a nice two window editor that renders MD as you type. Curious how Vrite compares with these. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
