Draft? #407

Open ThomasBrierley opened 6 years ago

ThomasBrierley commented 6 years ago

I know the whole point is to keep it short and simple, but unlike human languages 140 chars of code can sometimes require quite a bit of hacking which takes more time and effort.

A draft mode would be nice for this purpose - currently a have a few text files floating around i'm hacking on that I copy and paste back and forth but aren't submission worthy.

Just discovered Dwitter btw and I love the concept :smile: I am hooked

Great idea. Definitely something that would be useful for a lot of people. You're talking about a full draft system here, right? You could have a "save as draft" that allows you to save the current dweet into a list of your drafts (even if it is more than 140 characters).

Another idea that's been brought up before is to just use localStorage to remember the current dweet you're working on so you can return later without losing progress.

If anyone's interested, I think a draft system would be great! I might come around to implementing it some day, but I'm also happy to accept a pull request.

PS: Welcome to dwitter, and thanks for the suggestion!

Might also be worth noting that there's always codegolf.tk if your dweets are too long for dwitter... And, of course, don't be afraid to post your code on our Discord server - more often than not, your code can be cut down into <140 characters if you get other people involved :P
