   Hey everyone! I've just published a beta of my new app for writers -

   https://writingstreak.io

   It's a simple tool meant to help writers to develop a daily writing habit, achieve their writing goals, and track their progress.

   If you're interested in this sort of thing - it'd be really awesome if you could check it out and let me know what you think. I'm looking for any feedback, first impressions, your thoughts on what could be better.

     @rayalez it looks great, but it is no free software :( I would like to give it a try as an extension of my editor, maybe most people also do, have you tested this hypothesis?

     @atenorio This is an interesting idea, one more person has suggested it too, so I will be thinking about this. I don't quite see how it would work, but I'll try to figure it out.

     For now, you should check out slate.js, it is an extremely flexible and powerful editor, and writing streak is built on top of it. It might be more useful for extending your own project.

     @rayalez, thanks for sharing. Slate is a cool discovery :)
     
     Have you considered to develop your tool as free software and build your business model in a different way than requiring subscriptions?
