What do you like least about Hackpad? What could we do to make Hackpad a better user experience for Taiwanese users?
- I think the most annoying thing has been fixed in 2.0 - the Input Method issues i reported a while ago
- Collection is still a bit hard to organize things, that’s why we built hackfoldr — see http://hack.g0v.tw/
- Chinese typography is not yet at the same level as the beautiful design of 2.0.
- For Hei (sans-serif) typographic settings that goes well with Nova, please refer to "Han Heiti" here: https://github.com/ethantw/Han/blob/master/sass/han/ff/_heiti.scss#L9
- CJK characters are a bit too wide with the current 17px setting; 15px would be optimal.
- We’re happy to offer more detailed CSS suggestions if you’re interested.
- We also use Hackpad API to get content. (Like Communiques)
- But it has some bug. when I use Markdown format to get content, it would be mojibake. ex. https://gist.github.com/jessy1092/8630897 from https://note.hackpad.com/Test-RWK6WgnFBPZ
