It's also worth taking a look at the author's website: https://100r.co/ - ORCA is just one of many projects and explorations that they do while living on a boat.

The markdown editor listed on that page, Left, is really rather good: https://100r.co/site/left.html

Ronin also looks neat. Basically the ideas from Orca used to manipulate and transform images.

Here's a presentation they did: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BW32yUEymvU

It sounds like they'd left the boat at the time.

that talk, where they discuss their experience living on and maintaining a sailboat, resonates with me very well right now. In quarantine, I'm having to learn how to fix things and basically be able to take care of the household. It feels like we are on a space ship, drifting through time, but basking in peace and solitude.

This comment reminded me of this video by CGP Grey which I think you may enjoy if you haven't yet seen it.

it's worth noting that they had a fantastic session at xoxo 2019, talking about the trials and successes of living on a boat. having lived on top of a mountain with satellite internet (not nearly as bad as their connection), I was able to sympathize with the unhappiness of Xcode updates.

Man that's so cool. I feel like that beats tiny homes

The two happiest days in a boat owner's life are the day he buys the boat and the day he sells the boat.

I bet that doesn't apply to that couple or this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lk83N2u1ZmY (Living on a Self-Sufficient Sailboat for 10 Years)
