Hello everyone,

I wanted to ask if anyone has a preferred software for the purpose of creative writing.

Libre Office Writer is great of course, but just as software like LogSeq or Obsidian exist for the note taking process, I was wondering if there is anything that is specifically geared toward the creative writing process.

I know that there are federated blog platforms which focus on this in their presentation, but was curious about applications specifically.

FOSS is definitely preferable.

Thanks!

I am also a former TeX addict, but I was always more in favor or ConTeXt over LaTeX. And Typst is basically ConTeXt, but a lot faster (as in you get real time preview as you type).

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
