The latest UI changes(all the rounded corners and soft shadows, for example) in Chrome and elsewhere seem to show that they're even moving away from Material Design too,after years of hyping it
I nearly emailed you with just about the same feedback about how the app opens and one's surprised by being in the gallery. I get your point about wanting users to start right away. And now that I am used to your app, I am glad how quickly I get to the photos. Perhaps even a quick toast at least could say : pick a photo to start?
I do not honestly understand the negative comments, including the "Hugo did that already" since the dev points to important differences such as SASS.
I very much look forward to testing the binary (not knowing Rust I see no reason to try to play with the code). Just one preliminary feedback: gutenberg --help does not indicate any options. But if I could make a suggestion that might help set this apart a bit from other markdown-site-generators, it would be to have real support for footnotes. Most seem to use the GitHub flavor which is sorely lacking in that regard and it's unfortunate that most generators do not address this vital need for many of us.
Thank you for your work and for sharing this project.
I will actively keep an eye on this. Thank you
