Paper is a unique macOS text editor for iA Writer and Word 2016 fansThe biggest risk for a startup is building something that nobody wants or needs. Competing in a crowded market can be tough, so if you're developing an app that's solving a problem already being addressed by 20 competitors, it must offer something different. This is an area that Paper, a distraction-free minimal writing app for macOS, succeeds.

Can anyone explain me this “minimalistic markdown editor” phenomena? There are literally a tonne of them. Is there a secret tradition in Objective-C/Swift developers community to release yet another personal implementation of that kind of app? Is it some kind of a local joke? What brand new unique feature introduces that app? What authors of dozens other similar apps forgot to put in their offsprings? What kind of fatal flaw this exact app supposes to solve?

@metaword You beat me to the punch. Nowadays, when I see markdown editor, I look for the same cliches along with the reaction on my part, "uh what am I missing, here?"

@metaword maybe it's a way to learn programming? Maybe the developers are trying to scratch their own particular itch? Maybe it's an easy category to sell into because so much of the infrastructure to make apps like this already exists? But yeah, I had the same question.

While it's true that there are TONS of similar products out there, Paper is actually my favorite writing app on my mac. Great color scheme in dark mode, extremely minimal interface looks especially great fullscreen, and the ability to focus on one line at a time that stays in the center of the screen (typewriter mode) make it the best editor out there, at least for me.
