[samson zhang @wwsalmon]

this one's a long time coming: @postulateapp launch to public access!

ever look for the same tutorial or doc over and over? share notes & fall into gdoc permission hell?

postulate's opinionated solution: publish gh-style personal knowledge repos.

Back to @postulateapp outreach after setting up
@JoinEdyfi Agora

pitch: notetaking for writers sucks, links/ideas get scattered. Postulate puts them in one place and makes it easy to reference them while writing.

Tag your fav newsletters/writers for me to give early access to!

Sneak peek of a new look for @postulateapp 🤔

🎆v0.14.0: the new editor is now live! 🎆

If you've used Notion, Medium, or any other editor these days, you know what to expect.

All formatting options from the old markdown editor are available right now, but new features -- backlinks, tables, embeds, and more -- are coming!

[samson zhang @wwsalmon]

Really excited about this 😁

Using a MD editor was great for prototyping @postulateapp, but a more versatile/intuitive editor was always down the line.

It's amazing how nice of an editor can be quickly built, and deeply extended, using @ianstormtaylor+@zbeyens' Slate+Plugins!

[Postulate | postulate.us @postulateapp]

Sneak peak of an improvement a long time coming: an editor on par with Notion or Medium, with drag and drop, hovering toolbars, intuitive markdown auto-formatting, and more.

Shipping this week!
