## Description

When you just want to focus on what you’re writing, the default WordPress editor
can feel cluttered, with distractions surrounding your content.

Minimalist Editor turns your post editor into a digital typewriter, with nothing
else left on the screen than what you’re writing.

Inspired by editors such as WriteRoom.

Works by installing the plugin and [activating Distraction Free Writing mode](https://make.wordpress.org/support/user-manual/content/editors/distraction-free-writing/#enabling-distraction-free-writing).

#### Features

 * Typewriter style post editor
 * Light and dark mode
 * Sans serif typeface option

Very well executed minimal writing UI. I love Byword for Mac and this plugin brings
that kind of true distraction free writing to the WordPress editor. Nice work! Featured
on the iThemes Plugin Roundup for October 2018.
