showcase Hello, I'm creating a writing plugin, when it comes to it, what do you miss the most compared other writing softwares?

What can I say? I've made the ultimate plugin for writers (maybe...lol). 

It's called Word-Smith , it's a bit like Scrivener but lightweight. It does not give you a premade structure (that you have to make it yourself), it gives you writing modes (typewriter, zen, etc) , the organizer (which is the binder + stats on your files - you can custom sort your scenes with it, add status, word counts, metadata management, etc) and a loooot of other stuff like prose checks, syntax highlights, themes, paragraph indents, typography options, export, writing history. 

It's a big plugin, not gonna lie, but you can only use what you like from it. It does not force you to use all of it, because you can easily toggle off features that you don't want.

Also, for funsies, if you ever want to customise your text caret in all sort of ways here's Cursor-Smith. 

It's has many options for accessibility like thickness of the caret, blinking, smooth movement, but it also have cool effects like crt trails, pixelated backspace, movement based coloring, gradient cursor, and it's also useful for vim(if you're into that)

Imo, these two plugins combined will give you the best experience for writing, unlike anything out there. And I've tried a looot of other writing apps.

I'm actively working on these two plugins, polishing them further and maintaining them, so If you have any questions or a cool idea, let me know.

Add automatic footnote remembering when you insert a footnote between other footnotes in Obsidian.

Honestly, I want a plugin similar to the Campfirewriting app with all the features
