As a "worker" who needs an editor all the year round, facing the "various" editors on the market, I sometimes feel "powerless". I also want to have an editor I like. I accidentally saw Li Ziran on the website. Introduce a software like Effie on the website. This software is a product he wanted to build for himself at the beginning. This product is an editor that he made completely based on his perspective as a creator.
Of course, as a creator, I also want to make a software that I like very much according to my own ideas. However, I don’t have the value and pride of Li Ziran’s "big man". I spend hundreds of thousands of dollars not for commercial interests, but for the sake of business. I am happy to use it, and I have to think of a saying "rich is self-willed".
This editor has no commercial interest packaging. It is completely "big brother" and "wishful thinking" work. It gave up the fancy to the market and became a "clear stream" in the editor. Having said so much, it What is so good about it?
Effie is different from other products
Concise style
After opening the interface, the first thing that caught my eye was the simple style. After I got used to the complicated buttons and messy format, this feeling made me feel refreshed, as if the whole world was much quieter. I suddenly had the urge to write something. I thought that the first sense that a software brings to you is comfortable, so it must be a product worth trying.
Disruptive storage
The thing that makes me "love" this software the most is its storage method. I think as an editor or someone who uses this kind of editing software, I have had this experience: hard work for a long time, and finally no save. That kind of despair and anger is simply disintegrating.
But the most exciting thing about this product is that it doesn't need to be saved! Never forget the trouble of saving! This software will record every word you write in the software. You don't need to put it in the file. As long as you want to export it, it will let you choose to generate three formats, and you can also generate pictures. , This is a great help for my mobile phone dependence.
With this software, I no longer have to worry about finding documents, messy documents, improper preservation, and loss of content that I have worked so hard to edit. All these problems are gone, which saves me a lot of energy and time. .
The software controls the details
Another thing worth mentioning is that this piece of software controls the details very well! Each button has a darker display effect when you move the mouse up. The status bar is automatically hidden, and the response is very sensitive. The key buttons are placed in conspicuous positions and it is not cumbersome to find.
Of course, what I like the most is the function provided by this software, which is to turn the interface into a blank sheet of paper. This is difficult for other software to do. Of course, other software also works, but when I need to find the status bar Only this one can jump out and respond to me immediately. The details are so well done, it makes people feel very relieved and comfortable, without any anxiety, let me let go of my mind, and I can imagine wildly.
Effie product concept and development
Give up space to creators
The original intention of this editor is to take the creator’s own feelings as the premise. Of course, the product manager who developed this software is also a creator. He knows the pain points of creators best. As a personal experience, he learns from himself. Set off, giving the creator more space, so that the creator will not be restricted to the small grid surrounded by rotten buttons. What he chose is a "concession" method to save more space. It is left to the creative imagination of the creator.
Stimulate the potential of the author
This is to inspire greater potential for creators. Creation is an extremely hard and happy thing. With a beloved editor, you can reduce pain and increase happiness. This is this software. As the difference between "tools", some things are just "tools", but if they are meticulously crafted and refined, although they are still a tool, they will make people's lives suddenly improve with a sense of quality, which will make people feel To the goodness of life.
Summary: An editor is a very small category for the market, but almost everyone working on a computer will use it. Such a useful editor reflects the creator's concern for creators. Starting from various details, creators like me can't put it down.
Effie changed my impression of the editor as a whole, and gave me an updated view of the editor. After a small piece of software is carefully modified, it can make people feel a big improvement.
The pioneering storage method reduces the difficulty for creators to save and organize. The automatic extraction of outlines allows creators to better understand their ideas. This editor brings convenience to customers and opens up new technologies for the future. The way, don’t do nothing with little kindness, this is a gift the author gives to many creators, not for money, not for business, just for yourself and those who love to create a useful tool.
I hope that this software will not forget its original intention, and will be able to give creators more optimizations and changes in the future, and hope that better products will emerge, serve more needs, and get through various pain points in life and work.
