Research direction
This issue is a discussion about external editors for WordPress rather than a defined code change. Start by reading the linked MetaWeblog API and WordPress references, then review the comment thread for reported tools or workflows; done would require a clear documentation scope and agreed content to add.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Background
A short while ago I had something of a breakthrough -- I thought the Metaweblog API implementation for WordPress was gone, but this was a mistake, it was totally functional and documented.
So I put it on my todo list to hook my static site generator, Old School, up to WordPress, so I could use my outliner to write posts for a WordPress blog. That now works and is deployed.
It works. In fact I have it mirroring every post I make on my blog, and have even been able to tune up the CSS so it all looks reasonable.
Do you use an external editor for WordPress?
Okay so now we know that it can be done, what's the state of external editing for WordPress sites? I imagined that there was a full complement of tools that could work with WordPress, but when I did a quick search I didn't find much. Not sure I'm looking in the right places. So I thought I'd ask readers of my blog what they use, do you all use the internal editors, Calypso and Gutenberg, or do you use an external editor at connects via MetaWeblog?
