Telegram Group (New!)

Drafts Version: 26.2.4 Drafts Subscription: Pro Device: iPhone Operating System: iOS OS Build: 14.5

Version 0.1

I did not originally intend to share this theme, but I sortof accidentally ended up with a configuration I’m extremely happy with.

• This theme’s Issue on my iOS-specific GitHub Repository

Autocompletes #31

• GitHub Issue
• Directory of install URLS in the repo
• Tilde
• WTF

This is a collection of my personal “Autocomplete Suggestions” (identical to what TextExpander calls “snippets”) for Drafts, and they are installable, if you’d like.

Definitely read Tim Nahumck’s work on this feature if you’re curious about it.

Install

The hyperlinks on the expansion triggers will take you a corresponding plain text file containing the installation URL (which is, of course, the entire contents of each, encoded in a string.) Copy the full text of the URL, paste it in your web browser, and tap/click “Go” (or your equivalent)/key RETURN or ENTER. Regardless of platform, you should receive a prompt asking if you’d like to open it in Drafts.

Here’s a wee demo video:
