It has been a long time, but finally we are there. The beta version is out! Check it out at test.fiduswriter.org. Compared with Google Docs writer, we are still missing many things, but there are already some things we have that isn’t present in Google Docs which is quite important for any academic writer. Among the features in our beta version are:
- Professional citation management modeled on Biblatex with Bibtex import/export
- Export to LaTeX
- Track changes
- Semantic editing, which means the output is clean and can be reused
Other things such as figures, images, formulas are still missing but will be something we will be looking at for the 1.0 version due to be launched within a few months. Please try it out and let us know what you think!
