Downloads
Starting with release 4.0 the app can be downloaded exclusively on the Mac App Store. Previous releases can be found here: Releases.
Build release
If you are familiar with git and Xcode, you can checkout the git repository and build the app by yourself.
Roadmap
Currently my main interest is to fix bugs, enhance already existing features and implement some new features while retaining the original focus and feature-set:
- powerful, but easy to use
- provide many helpful tools to edit texts
- support for many code languages (e.g. syntax highlighting)
