We don‘t have writing implemented yet other than comments at the side of the paper. But we‘re working on implementing a good editor. Do you have any suggestions what you‘d like to see in the product (other than the already mentioned cite as you write)?

I would suggest that you pay close attention to what kind of 'academic' you are targeting.

In my opinion, the needs of STEM researchers are very different from those of the humanities. STEM researcher tend to use citations to substantiate pre-existing information, almost never have footnotes, and typically have schematics/flowcharts/graphs in their documents.

A good editor should be able to cross-reference citations, figures, handle SVG smoothly and definitely have Mermaid/MathJax support.

Thank you for the pointers! We will consider this. Are you a researcher yourself? Would love to hear about your experience using our app.
