Thanks! We made it for people who want to make pages that aren't easily made in common CMS tools and page builders. It's for posting quick, focused content experiences that can be easily consumed without distraction.

It seems like you are a short jump away from making it a WYSIWYG editing experience. Any reason you went the sort of hybrid markdown approach instead and/or any plans in the future to have direct WYSIWYG editing?

WYSIWYG editors hide too much of the important information from the user. We want designers and developers to be able to see the real code and content so they aren't dealing with mysterious hidden complexity.

Hi - looks like a great workflow. I tweeted you guys on this, but I thought I'd add it here: would be really neat to see the ability to integrate externally via webhooks. (if this makes sense to do at all)

We've been working in the same space as you for a while with http://populr.me. Great to see others banging the drum of one-off content!
