Sorry to hijack the thread, but I am so excited by this. I have always kept my developer log in vim, and I basically run my life from it, but I've always wanted inline preview, a system wide hotkey, and cross platform file sync that doesn't require giving my unencrypted data to a cloud provider. I have found a lot of markdown apps with preview and sync, but none of them support vim bindings, which is a deal breaker.…

If youre a tinkerer it's always possible to just use plain vim and a repository. Of you want that repo end to end encrypted, keybase could be an option. You'd lose out on mobile though and this project looks pretty neat if you're willing to pay

That's what I've been doing, but it's a pain in the butt to commit and push every time I make an edit.

No, Quiver doesn't use Electron and is Mac only. Inkdrop is cross-platform.

It does use electron. "At that time, I was new to develop apps on top of Electron and ReactJS. As Inkdrop grew, I have learned a lot of good practices from it. I found that it can be improved much better in terms of implementation."

Inkdrop uses Electron but Quiver doesn't.
