NoticeI'm stopping further development of Quill 🥲30 Aug 2022

Hello, my name is Eunjae Lee. I'm from South Korea, now living in France, working as a full-time software engineer. I've been always passionate about productivity tools, and Craft has been my beloved choice for note taking. That's why I have decided to work on Quill, so that I can freely write once in Craft, and easily get it published. I just checked. I bought the domain quill.so in February 2021 🙂

For sustainable development, I needed paying users. I put a lot of effort and time after my full-time work. I had to juggle among my work, my personal time, my time with my family, etc. It was not easy, but it was so thrilling that I was making something very useful to me.

However, as you know, life happens. I guess I'm in the middle of transition to another phase in my life. I tried to keep working on Quill, but I have accepted that it's no longer sustainable. Also, as Craft grows super rapidly, I couldn't keep up with what they're doing. I love it as Craft user, but it's impossible for me to just be aware of all the changes, while being a full-time employee.

New sign-ups are blocked. Existing (a few) customers can keep using Quill since I'm going to keep the server running because I still use it. However, I also offered them a full refund of what they have paid if they want to leave Quill.

It's hard to describe how much I appreciate all of you. So many people showed their interest. So many people have rooted for me. I witnessed conversations on Craft's Slack where someone was asking for custom domain support, and someone else popped up to introduce Quill to them. I really love all the support you have shown. And I am also sorry that I didn't make it up to what you wished to have. I'm pretty sure the Craft team will bring something satisfactory to you. That's what they've been doing, right?
