Description
When you just want to focus on what you’re writing, the default WordPress editor can feel cluttered, with distractions surrounding your content.
Minimalist Editor turns your post editor into a digital typewriter, with nothing else left on the screen than what you’re writing.
Inspired by editors such as WriteRoom.
Works by installing the plugin and activating Distraction Free Writing mode.
Features
- Typewriter style post editor
- Light and dark mode
- Sans serif typeface option

Reviews
Very well executed minimal writing UI. I love Byword for Mac and this plugin brings that kind of true distraction free writing to the WordPress editor. Nice work! Featured on the iThemes Plugin Roundup for October 2018.
