Open letter to all developers with blogs

If you guys want to try a new blogging experience, I recommend Epiphany:

https://epiphany.pub/post?refId=2684bc94f9fcb9ffe637ebfbeba2...

Epiphany is a crossover of Jupyter notebook and Medium.com,

Not only can you write text, you can also program on it, to create interactive examples, see:

In addition to interactivity, Epiphany implements version control, forking and pull request. You can collaborate with others just like you do on github.

An article will have two timestamps, Create time and last modified time. More than that, you can see the entire revision history.

Source code is in text and syntax highlighted.

It also has the social publishing feature as seen on Medium.

Finally, users own their content. Epiphany has a download button to allow downloading all blog data.

The format used by Epiphany, unlike that of Jupyter, is in plain text and is human readable.

disclaimer: I made Epiphany

I just signed up, this is exactly the kind of platform I've been wanting. Thanks!

Sure! In the little tour it gives you, when it's describing the play button, I couldn't click Next or Finish because they were hidden behind the little tag input area. I just zoomed out on the page with CTRL + minus and was able to click.

I imagine you didn't notice this due to it being specific to my screen size (I'm on a macbook, I'm guessing you're using something else?)

Thank you for the feedback. Yes, the tour isn't perfect. I'm using a library called vuetour. I don't like it and am about to replace it.

I will resolve the issue this weekend.

You're welcome! I'm enjoying the site quite a bit, it's gorgeous.

I don't think the GitHub for the project is updated but from now on when I notice things I'll raise them as issues there :)
