Research direction

The issue contains a question and an explanation of a browser-based JavaScript app using WordPress and the wpidentity package, but names no files or tests. First clarify whether documentation or a code change is wanted, then identify the relevant app and package entry points; the work is done only when the requested comparison or change is explicitly defined.

Description

Bob Sassone asked how my new writing tool for compares with Ghost.

My response

Sorry it wasn't clear -- but as far as I know, Ghost isn't built on WordPress. It's a completely different product.

My writing app runs on WordPress. So you can use it with your existing wordpress.com sites.

It's a browser-based JavaScript app that hooks into WordPress via the wpidentity package I wrote.

And the codebase I've built will support lots of editors built using WordPress as the backend.

This is a place to ask questions...
