Jottr is a simple, opinionated, plain text editor I developed primarily for my personal use. It’s mainly intended for writers, researchers and journalists or anyone who needs a simple, distraction-free tool for writing. It’s cross-platform and can be used on Linux, macOS or Windows. The app is released under the GPL v3 license.

It has the following features:

• Dark, Light and Sepia (paper-like) themes
• Focus mode - Distraction-free writing made easy by hiding all UI elements (can be toggled with mouse or a keyboard shortcut)
• Search for any word without leaving the editor using the integrated web browser
• Snippets - Save any word or block of text as snippets and quickly insert using mouse or through typing snippet name
• User dictionary
• Inline auto-completion for words added to user dictionary
• Add custom search websites to your right-click menu
• Custom font for editor
• Zoom controls

RPM and DEB packages are provided at the project’s github page.
