About Writ

Writ opens any text file and searches every file in its folder. A Markdown file renders inline as you type, with the markup shown on the line you are editing. Chat, rewriting, connected programs, connections, the graph and tags are apps, each switched on in Settings. Writ needs no account and sends no telemetry.
