I’ve been using iA Writer for this exact purpose. A place to quickly dump text I don’t want to lose or quickly create drafts I don’t want to accidentally send.

I’m not sure whether blocks would be better than just separate files, which can be created quickly using Cmd+N.

However, the lack of syntax highlighting in iA writer has been less than ideal, so I’m definitely trying this out!

First impressions:

- resizing the window creates white borders when the content of the window hasn’t been updated yet to reflect the new window size. these are a bit jarring / look non-native.

- I try to keep electron apps to a minimum, as I’ve had only bad experiences with them so far (Discord, Warp, Unity Hub) and they take up a lot of resources.

- While writing code, it does not keep indentation when entering a closing bracket.

These are more nitpicks, but I love the concept :) Great work!
