Hi Mark S I had another look, and yes, I had seen the most recent incarnation of NotoWritey when I posted (if https://marxsal.github.io/various/notowritey-outliner.html is still the location). I would still stand by my statements:
1) It is similar to Stream: it is an outliner editable in view template of the parent tiddler, where each node/line/point is its own tiddler that gets edited from the view template of the parent.. 2) Even though it is an outliner, it seems more geared toward writing and editing larger paragraphs toward longer pieces, than toward rapid generation of shorter items as in to do lists, tables of contents and outlines, because of the jarring apparatus that appears around each point when creating it. This apparatus is distracting when one wants to just generate a lot of short points or rearrange them. The distraction is both visual (the cluttered feel I mentioned) and psychologically (lots of choices present themselves forcefully). The background color of the text field is dark, making it harder to read what one is writing. #eee would be a more relaxing option. The hamburger menu at the far left is always visible, creating another distraction. If there were a way to write but have the editing apparatus hidden until I ask for it, that would be closer to a Dynalist feel than NotoWritey is now. As it stands, I would compare it more to a word processor feel, something useful for writing longer paragraphs in longer documents. Please don't take the above as negative comments! They are not. They are just my attempt at explaining why I don't see NotoWritey as a tool for rapid generation of short points. 3) Having the editing tools available at each point is powerful, and despite my reservations in point 2, I really do like NotoWritey. If I were going to write a manuscript, I would choose NotoWritey over Streams and probably over any of the other options. Although printing presents an issue: I would add "Hide left margin icons when printing" to your roadmap, since I don't see anything like that there. They are visible in print preview in Firefox. Kudos, Mark, NotoWritey is a great tool. Sorry if my original post sounded dismissive, it wasn't meant to be. And I haven't even investigated all the options in the hamburger menu or the bottom of the editing apparatus. Lots of power packed into it.
