Overview
WonderPen is a writing app designed for Linux users who want a simple but powerful tool to write novels, essays, or other documents.
It helps you keep your work organized with a tree-like folder system.
You can drag and drop files to change their order or how they are grouped, which makes managing long projects easier.
The app includes a Markdown text editor that is easy to use.
You can switch to full-screen mode to write without distractions.
WonderPen lets you export your work into several formats like PDF, Word, Epub, HTML, and images.
It also has a whiteboard mode where you can add notes, images, checklists, tables, and Kanban boards to help plan your writing.
You can add individual notes to each document or create global note cards for quick reference when working on multiple files.
When you have many documents, you can focus on a specific folder while hiding others.
The app supports full-text search, replace options, and lets you split or merge chapters as needed.
WonderPen saves your work automatically and has features for taking document snapshots and full library backups.
It also supports automatic backups to protect your data from being lost.
For comfortable use, it offers dark mode and various themes like green, yellow, and gray.
You can even customize the look by adding your own CSS.
If you want to store the library in a different folder, you may need to give access permissions using tools like Flatseal.
Note that WonderPen works only on Linux and does not mention support for collaboration with multiple users.
For help or feedback, you can reach out through the app’s help menu or by email at [email protected].
