[Feature Request] : Auto Saving #17

Closed adiultra closed 5 years ago

adiultra commented 8 years ago

I thank the developers for the amazing markdown editor. I would like to recommend auto saving documents at any change.

The inspiration is from another electron app FromScratch.

Either autosaving or session saving (ie, store any change to documents even the ones that are not yet saved to a temporary file on disk in Abricotine's user folder, so in case of a crash or just closing the app without saving, everything can be restored). Examples for this feature include Notepad++ (historically one of the firsts to do that), Atom, Typora (another markdown editor).

I just discovered Abricotine. It feels very clean and simple. I hope it will get attention and support from the open source community. (I wish I could help, but I don't know any JS)

All basic features I wished for are already there, but the auto-save function is essential to me. I was ready to recommend Abricotine to a friend who is going to write her PhD thesis. However, I worry she could lose her work without an auto-save function.

It might be early to recommend Abricotine as it's still in beta. I wish the best for Abricotine and its contributors.
