Why I built type.mx
Every time I needed to quickly jot something down, I’d reach for Google Docs or Notion. They’re great tools, but they feel heavy when all I want to do is type a few words.
I wanted something that felt as quick as doc.new but without all the clutter - a space I could open instantly and just start writing.
That’s where type.mx came from: a writing space designed to stay out of your way.
What type.mx is
type.mx is a distraction-free, browser-based writing tool.
- Opens instantly. No loading screens, no accounts.
- Everything you write is saved locally - nothing leaves your browser.
- Dark and light themes so you can write anytime.
- Simple controls to copy, download, or clear your writing.
- Designed to be minimal but feel good to use.
It’s a single page that does exactly one thing: help you write without distractions.
The idea behind it
I love tools that are fast, minimal, and reliable. I wanted something that:
- Felt lighter than opening Google Docs.
- Was always ready in a single click.
- Had a clean, calm design that keeps me focused.
- Made writing feel like opening a fresh notebook.
Sometimes, simple tools are the ones you actually use every day. type.mx is my version of that.
Why it matters
Writing is about ideas, not software. By stripping away menus, sidebars, and sign-ins, type.mx brings back that simple feeling of typing without noise.
If you often feel bogged down by big apps, this might be the perfect place to think and create.
