Hello! I humbly introduce grist-txt: a autosaving plaintext editor widget.
I made this to scratch a particular itch for mobile friendly multi-line text editing.
- Most Android keyboards don’t support sending Shift+Enter, so inserting a new line is very difficult.
- When editing or entering long text on mobile, you need to remember to click the green check to save the field (or press enter). On more than one occasion on mobile I forgot to click that green check and lost all my work. (It’s easier to do than you might think. Say, you were writing some notes on your phone, and someone calls you in the middle of it.)
You can try it out by adding a custom widget with https://kindrowboat.github.io/grist-txt/index.html.
Happy gristing <3
