as the title,is there any instruction to deploy?

Why do not catch key event of ctrl + s ?
I had finished before 5 mins, but it can't stop.
So what should I do to finish it ?

When I input tab ,window will onfocus on browser address bar

Hi, just clone and run
npm i
then
npm run build
and getting this error. Unknown argument: mode.
Maybe it's a problem with webpack?
'cause npm run start fork fine

I really don't know if this would be possible in a webapp, but blocking common text editing shortcuts could make this application really true to its name. If I'm blocked, I can easily type c-a to select all the text and c-c to copy it. This should be only possible when the timer stops.

I was using https://www.squibler.io/, which seems to be based of the code of themostdangerouswritingapp, in order to write short stories.

The way it works is that it generates a short sentence AKA writing prompt, and then the usual logic of TMDWA proceeds.

Today, they closed their website and require a login (until yesterday it allowed anon users).

Could we add something like this to TMDWA?

Maybe from https://ineedaprompt.com/ ?

Hello!

Thanks again for the lovely app. I've been using it quite a bit to get my mind unstuck when I just need to produce some text, and later copyedit. To that purpose, I made a small command line launcher that enables launching the app like this:

dangerouslywrite

or

dangerouslywrite 5

Full script:

#!/bin/bash

QUANTITY="${1:-5}"
UNIT="${2:-minutes}"

firefox -new-window "https://maebert.github.io/themostdangerouswritingapp/#/write?limit=$QUANTITY&type=$UNIT"

This might not be novel at all, but I figured I'd share it and let you be the judge. Browser is hard-coded for now. Feel free to close this issue when you've seen it.

After finishing a writing session, accidentally hovering the cursor over the "Start again" button produces the "Session length" popup box. The box is distracting to writers who want to continue writing past the time limit but have accidentally triggered it. But, there's no way to close the box and it does not disappear by itself.

As this application is relatively compact, it may make sense as a component of a larger app. It may be useful to make the features exposed by this application available as a standalone Web Component.

When typing in cyrillic the editing functionality of the text area still works. Also, for some reason the contents of the area persist beyond the few seconds of limit. This makes the app not so dangerous ;)

Hey there

First of all, I love the app! I've been using it a lot. Thanks for making it open source.

Sometimes, when I fail and the "You failed." screen pops up - it does not let me continue once I subscribe to the newsletter. It makes me start over and my data does not persist.

Is there a way this could be fixed?

Thanks

Al pulsar SPACE el sistema lo detecta igual que a las demas letras, de manera que al presionar esa tecla constantemente se puede permanecer en la App sin perder.
Creo que la solucion seria que en el listener de eventos la tecla SPACE no lo procese de la misma forma que a las demas teclas.
I am sorry, but i do not speak english only speak spanish. Try translated

Is there a way to set dark mode via URL parameter like for example: https://maebert.github.io/themostdangerouswritingapp/write?limit=5&type=minutes&theme=dark

By adding &theme=dark on the end.

Thanks!

I really like the potential of this application. However, your choice of CoffeeScript makes it inaccessible to a number of developers who aren't comfortable with that particular flavor of an "enhanced" JavaScript experience.

Since the application is relatively compact, it should be simple to do a one-time compile to JavaScript and migrate the project to it permanently. Perhaps even using the new ES2015 features. But above all else, I request that this application be switched away from CoffeeScript.

Would be nice to know how many words you wrote within a session once you have won it.

Suggestions:

• display somewhere near the download button
• could be the title of the file, along with timestamp

Hi Manuel,

Thanks a million for making the Most Dangerous Writing App. It’s great for writing and seems to be improving my ability to meditate too! Nice work!

One question: is there any way to set the display defaults? I like to use dark background and fullscreen. Currently I have to select these options every time.

Kind regards,

Pat

Hi, first of all thanks for the app, it is fun to use and is helping me quite a bit writing a lengthy report. However I feel there should be a mention somewhere that the regular ctrl/cmd-c does not work. I had finished a paragraph and wanted to copy it back to my main file and I lost all of it. I realise that right-click/copy works, but I think it should be said somewhere so there is no bad surprise on the first use.

I spot some guys cheating by coping anything to the clipboard (ctrl + A / ctrl + C)
To really improve productivity we need to clear the clipboard to ensure nobody can save the text !

I thought the "Win! Retry?" button would reset the timer on the same project. Turns out, it erases the current one and starts a blank page. Might be good to display confirmation box or a note to indicate what it does.

(sorry if this is the wrong place to report the issue. I'm new to open source projects)

''.split(/\s+/).length // == 1

code in update_stats uses the snippet above. pressing any non-character key (e.g. Ctrl) or writing something and then erasing it, will result in an empty document but shows 1 word at the bottom of the screen instead of 0.

It's so funny and useful tools,I want to share to more friend,so I hope you can resolve this issues

Line breaks are accepted, but are not saved in the resulting text file. Would be a nice to have.
