"stone," a macOS app to increase writing motivation now on sale

Stone is a text editor for Japanese language.
In contrast to high functionality text editors to date, it concentrates its focus on writing, to reduce functions to the barest minimum, and by honing in on the tone of elements to avoid cluttered screen design, it makes a reality of a writing experience akin to writing on a blank sheet of paper.
Despite this increased simplicity, it is equipped with functions to increase writing motivation, including vertical writing peculiar to Japanese, a Mincho typeface, and automatic save function.
For more on the application contents and details of how to use it, please see the website.
