Show HN:无干扰阅读/写作工具
Show HN: Distraction Free Reader/Writer
导读
这是 Hacker News 上一个“无干扰读写器”新产品的发布帖,但评论区很快跑偏成了一场关于“写作工具已经严重过剩”的讨论:同类产品多到列不完,新品必须回答“凭什么用你”。对写作者来说,这篇的价值不在于又发现一个编辑器,而在于提醒:工具本身不稀缺,稀缺的是持续写下去,以及把多篇文稿管理清楚。
可以直接用的写作要点
- 01
无干扰写作工具在网页端和原生端都已有几十款同类产品,追新不如选一款能让自己持续写下去的,把精力留给内容本身。
- 02
真正的差异化不在“又一块空白编辑器”,而在写作流程里更难的部分——多篇文稿的命名、检索、修改和删除,这往往才是写作者真正卡住的地方。
- 03
当市场饱和时,第一件事是说清“我解决了什么具体问题”;写文章同理,动笔前先想清楚这篇要替读者解决什么。
- 04
工具再简洁,如果同名文稿分不清、改稿入口藏得深,写作节奏照样被打断——自己建立清晰的文件命名和版本习惯,比换工具更有效。
HN 评论精选
无干扰写作工具已严重过剩,新产品必须先讲清差异化,否则没有理由被选择。
这类产品现在真是太多了:Koi Writer、Dark Copy、Light Write、Quabel、Wabisabi、Write.app、Pen.io、Draft 等等,Mac 上还有 Focus Writer、OmmWriter、iA Writer、Writeroom、ByWord 等一大串。所以每次有人做出新的无干扰读写器,我都想知道:我为什么要用你这个?你的产品看起来干净漂亮,我不是要贬低它,但进入一个这么饱和的市场,第一步就该把自己和别人的区别讲清楚。

There sure are a lot of these now. There's Koi Writer [1], Dark Copy [2], Light Write [3], Quabel [4], Wabisabi [5], Write.app [6], Pen.io [7], (I like this one), Draft [8], and probably more. [1] http://www.koi-writer.com/editor/ [2] http://darkcopy.com/ [3] http://gun.io/w/yyhegyfn6 [4] https://quabel.com/ [5] http://www.wabisabi.cc/ [6] https://writeapp.me/ [7] http://pen.io/ [8] https://draftin.com/ Then there's also native apps as well. For Mac, there's Focus Writer [1], OmmWriter [2], iaWriter [3], Writeroom [4], ByWord [5], Clean Writer [6], Writer [7], GrandView [8], and Texts [9] (I like this one) [1] http://gottcode.org/focuswriter/ [2] http://www.ommwriter.com/ [3] http://www.iawriter.com/mac/ [4] http://www.hogbaysoftware.com/products/writeroom [5] http://bywordapp.com/ [6] https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/clean-writer-pro/id478363291?mt=12 [7] https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/writer/id405680527?mt=12 [8] https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/grandview/id432436025?mt=12 [9] http://texts.io So I guess, whenever one creates a new distraction free writer/reader, I need to know: why should I use this* app?* Your app looks pretty clean and pretty nice, but what makes it better? I don't mean this comment to put your app down as it looks pretty appealing, but I think the key first step when joining such a saturated market is to differentiate yourself.
无干扰写作已被归入“过度饱和的点子”,说明它本身不再是卖点。
真希望有个网站能列出那些被做烂了的 Web 应用和开源点子。我猜待办清单、无干扰写作应用、CSS 框架、天气应用、发票应用之类,应该都排在榜单前列。

I wish there was a site that listed the most over-done web app and OSS ideas. I'm guessing todo lists apps, distraction free writing apps, css frameworks, weather apps, invoicing apps, etc. would be near the top of the list.
写作工具的短板常在多文档管理而非打字界面,混乱的改稿流程会打断写作节奏。
管理多篇文稿的整个流程还需要打磨。比如:回来修改某篇时,得先打开预览、再记住快捷键才能进入编辑,除此之外只能改 URL;如果有两篇文稿同名,你根本分不清现在在哪一篇;删除文稿也让人困惑,而且在查看模式下删不了;快捷键里 control 和 option 还混着用。不过整体我很喜欢,会继续用它多写一些。

The entire workflow of managing more than one write-up needs some more work. Few examples: - if you come back and try to edit a write-up you'll have to first open the preview then remember the shortcut to edit it, not really another way around except maybe changing the URL. - if you have more than one write-up with the same name, you don't really know which one you are on right now. - deleting the write-up is kinda confusing too. and you can't delete on the view mode. - shortcuts gets mixed up between control and option. But overall love it and will try to write more with your help!
