## Features
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Made for writing
|
|
|
|
|
|
Built on a plain, auto-saving editor, WriteFreely gives you a distraction-free writing environment. Once published, your words are front and center, and easy to read.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### A connected community
|
|
|
|
|
|
Start writing together, publicly or privately. Connect with other communities, whether running WriteFreely, [Plume](https://joinplu.me/), or other ActivityPub-powered software. And bring members on board from your existing platforms, thanks to our OAuth 2.0 support.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Intuitive organization
|
|
|
|
|
|
Categorize articles [with hashtags](https://writefreely.org/docs/latest/writer/hashtags), and create static pages from normal posts by [_pinning_ them](https://writefreely.org/docs/latest/writer/static) to your blog. Create draft posts and publish to multiple blogs from one account.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### International
|
|
|
|
|
|
Blog elements are localized in 20+ languages, and WriteFreely includes first-class support for non-Latin and right-to-left (RTL) script languages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Private by default
|
|
|
|
|
|
WriteFreely collects minimal data, and never publicizes more than a writer consents to. Writers can seamlessly create multiple blogs from a single account for different pen names or purposes without publicly revealing their association.
