Textual Enters Beta: A Simple, Free Blogging Platform

I’m thrilled to announce that Textual has entered its beta phase. As an indie developer, I’ve built Textual to be the straightforward blogging platform I’ve always wanted - one that puts writing first.

Textual is now open for beta testing, and I’m excited to share it with fellow writers who value simplicity. This platform is my attempt to strip away the complexity that often comes with blogging tools.

The core Textual experience is and will always be free. This includes:

  • Drag and drop Markdown publishing
  • Global CDN for fast content delivery
  • Permanent web hosting for your posts

My goal is to let your words shine without technical distractions. I’ve focused on creating a clean, fast, and reliable platform for sharing your ideas.

As Textual grows, I plan to introduce additional features based on user requests. While these future enhancements may come with a price tag, the fundamental Textual experience will remain free.

During this beta stage, your feedback is invaluable. As a solo developer, I rely on user insights to help refine and improve the platform. I’m committed to building a tool that truly serves writers’ needs.

Whether you’re an experienced blogger looking for a no-frills solution or just starting your writing journey, I invite you to try Textual. You can head to the dashboard to create an account and publish your first post.

I’m looking forward to seeing the stories and ideas that will find a home here!
