Build websites and apps with AI that understands design.

Hello! I wanted to shed some light on the motivation and why I am using and will use this myself!

I write on multiple devices (an iPad, a laptop, even more), and I wanted a quick way to start every day, get some frontmatter ready for my daily pieces on journal.coffee, jot down notes and even work on books. I have tried several software, some stellar, some half-assed, some bloated, some minimal, but I felt like I needed something of my own.

So, I decided that the best way to go about it is to have a TUI. I can access it from anywhere, and mostly, it will do the job. This way, I can access it from a terminal app on the iPad or Windows (cue: Termix on a browser) and on the Macbook. Hence, Prosaic was born!

The idea of Prosaic is simply to have as many anti-features as features for no writer wants to be married to the tool. Prosaic has no subscriptions, no costs, no lock-ins, no AI, no telemetry or tracking. It does have markdown, a focus mode, outline with headings, different writing modes (books, pieces, free drafts), Git-readiness. That is all anyone needs to write their best work.

On top of that, Prosaic will always be open-source.

Congrats on the launch!
