What’s your favourite minimalist outlining, writing, PIM or productivity application (in terms of interface and features)?

It must be in the nature of technological innovation and market competition that bells and whistles eventually result in sensory overload with many software. For this reason I tend to favour minimalist apps, whenever I have an option.

Here are my favourites:

- WorkFlowy (Win & iOS)
- the Outliner tool in ConnectedText
- Noteliner
- Classic Calendar
- Freeplane
- The Guide
- TreeSheets
- FocusWriter
- Nebulous Note (iOS)
- Everything search engine
- InoReader (RSS)
- Outliner Software (this forum)

I personally don’t really like the minimalist applications but I have a favorite browser based app for writing: Draft
https://draftin.com/

Here is the feature list:

Writemonkey! Though, there’s currently a preview release that adds plug-ins, leaving me to wonder if it is going to remain minimalistic. Then again, they can always be disabled.

Also, TodoPaper/Taskpaper.

i wondered if it was the same as Draft, the Android app which is the successor to Epistle—link here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mvilla.draft
I was thinking about getting this app for its Dropbox syncing feature, since Epistle no longer works for that.

draftin.com is something different - but it’s a very attractive webapp.

Allow for my mentioning two tools that I hold both in high respect:

XyWrite - generations of then well-paid journalists put all their texts into the keyboard with the help of this

KEdit - a very special folding editor, where the folding structure can be restricted or enlarged at your will; for some, it’s the perfect one pane outliner
