Very cool tool! I really like the idea of tracking writing progress with Github to build consistency.
Writing can inherently be a pretty lonely activity, so anything to make it more social and shareable is a big improvement. I'd love to see Quillcap expand to more writing tools! โ๏ธ
@olive_haus thanks olive! So happy you love it! I appreciate your consistent support!
@abishek_gomes Interesting idea. I do a lot of my daily writing on Google Docs. I'm surely going to try this out.
congrats on the launch Abishek! this is cool! are you planning on integrating other writing tools? :)
@abishek_gomes i'm thinking Notion would be a good one. I think there are lots of writers using it as their ops base. But it couldn't just read 1 page. They create like Books databases that then have relations to the Chapters database.
That would increse the complexity on your end. But food for thought ๐
@thejorgemedina gotcha, yeah I know a ton of folks use notion, I will definitely check it out!
Hi abishek! This looks amazing, I gotta try it out :)
Do you have any plan on release it on another writing apps?
@nonthakon Non! Thank you so much!
Yep I plan to integrate other writing apps, even blog sites :)
It was super fun to try out Quillcap โ loved the "Github calendar" view, I can imagine it's super useful to writers to stay motivated day after day ๐
@eliasstravik I'm glad it worked well for you Elias! Also really appreciate your support from Day 1!
This looks pretty nice for the writers of the future!
Probably could be a good idea in the near future to add AI suggestions for the book, but for now good luck in the launch!
So stoked for this app! I have so many writer friends who would benefit tremendously from this!
Congrats on the launch mate ๐
@nathansrobinson thank you so much Nathan, appreciate that you've been supporting since Day 1! :)
Extremely nice implementation of a super common idea but for a niche probably no one would think of helping. Absolutely love it.
I found Google Docs the best doc writing tool out there! It's nice to have these features for it!
@ivan_makarov1 yes a lot of writers seem to use it! So decided to start there. Glad you think so too!

Hey Abishek! ๐ Quillcap is such a thoughtful tool, and kudos for building it for your girlfriend! ๐ ๐ How does it specifically help with forming daily writing habits? Does it provide reminders or insights on progress?
@aashish_peepra I plan to incorporate streaks and notifications, but the main utility is starting to write every few days and looking back makes it harder to not do the next day, pretty much because you have an unbroken streak.
I am really impressed with how well this idea has been executed, especially considering it is such a common concept. What's even more commendable is that it caters to a niche that is unlikely to receive much attention or assistance. I am absolutely thrilled by it.
This is a wonderful product Abishek, this will greatly improve writers productivity ๐ฏ
Awesome product will come in very handy for writers hope to see how this goes nice work Abishek
