I wish the README had a description of the mounting bracket, and of the editor (i.e. is it based on an existing editor). Relatedly, are there console based editors that focus on writing prose? What about setups for the more popular editors built for code?

I use Emacs for prose, mostly screenwriting.

The mounting is indeed a PLA 3d printed stand built in 5 minute in thinkerCAD. The editor is the object of the program it's homemade and pretty basic (and I wanted it basic). I should add a video at some point.

The mounting bracket seems to be a 5-minute design that was then 3D-printed. If you don't have a printer, I imagine someone at your local Makerspace would be more than happy to help in exchange for pizza.
