iA Writer 4 - Embed images, tables and text as blocks of content in text

I've tried quite a few tools, keep coming back to iA. Everything I design begins as an outline in this app, with each update it seems to stay in there longer.

iA writer makes plain text so powerful. I can't imagine going back to another wp for writing and note-taking. Multi platform support is better than the big guys, too. Nested files and Medium/Wordpress integration makes it better than ever for blogging.

Absolutely love this update. So well done. Here's hoping the Markdown additions you folks have made with content blocks is picked up by others. A fantastic solution to a long-standing problem — especially when it comes to Markdown tables. One request: Would be great to be able to reference hosted files via full http addresses. Otherwise, my new go-to. And that comes from someone who's used almost every Markdown editor for the Mac that's ever been.

One question: Can I include diagram i.e. via mermaid syntax?

I deep dive into writing rituals using this software. Tough to explain beyond it. But they have gotten their UI perfect for a writing mode.

Pros:

Easily one of the best distraction-free software out there. I prefer this to the cluttered document editors.

Cons:

The keyboard shortcuts are a bit tough to get used to.

IA Writer is so polished. It's basically @superhumanco for organizing and remembering your thoughts.
