A lot has changed since the last release, probably the biggest of which is blocks. Read more about them:

Blocks allow you to break up your text. You can hide parts of the text to focus on the part you're working on. You can mark parts of the text to come back to later.

Other big changes:

  • easier to read diffs! Now history mode changes are shown like the split-view on Github. You can also diff two blocks.
  • Front matter for books. This is where you can write a synopsis for the book, and add characters. When you select a character's name in your text, information about them will show up in the Info panel.
  • Compost heap. This is where you can store your ideas before you find a home for them.
  • Search, move chapters
  • Chapter statuses: mark chapters as paused, in-progress, or done.
  • Read only mode, so you can read through your text without worrying about making accidental changes.
  • Import and export chapters and books.
  • Syntax highlighting for code blocks
  • Docs! at chiseleditor.com
  • Better mobile styles

Plus lots of bug fixes, design tweaks, and performance improvements. This is a big update, check it out!
