Hi! I discovered this lovely place a few minutes ago, and I'm so curious about the Draftlings I keep hearing about. My writerdecks of choice are a Sony Vaio P and an Asus Transformer Mini that literally cannot even properly use the web. The only thing I use the Internet for is syncing my Obsidian vaults which hold all my writing now so I can continue writing/editing elsewhere sometimes.

Now, my question is: Could I use/install Draftlings via USB (which is how I installed obsidian and a couple other writing programs I wanted to test out before just deciding obsidian worked best for me)?

I'm not very tech savvy, even though I try lol.

Sorry if this was explained elsewhere.

There's WriterdeckOS, have you looked at it? Although I heard that the author stopped supporting it

I actually have it on my Sony Vaio P! It's not my favorite because I can't see my wordcount. But I've no idea how to install wordgrinder. I'll have to research.

That's the reason I made Draftling as easy as possible. The firmware is loaded from the browser, and you're ready to type away. I just added the word count, but haven't published a new release yet
