Quillwright is a writing environment for novels and long-form fiction, in plain Markdown, built to work alongside AI agents.

Download

System File
Linux Quillwright-0.2.0-x86_64.AppImage (make it executable and run it), or the .tar.gz
Windows quillwright-0.2.0-windows-x86_64.zip (unzip and run quillwright.exe)
macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel) Quillwright-0.2.0-macos-universal.dmg

The Windows and macOS builds are not signed yet, so the system warns you on first launch. See First launch on Windows and macOS in the README. SHA256SUMS.txt lets you check the downloads.

Export is now built in

  • Export to Word, EPUB, PDF, OpenDocument, and HTML no longer needs pandoc or a PDF engine.
    It is part of Quillwright, works offline, and never downloads anything.
  • PDFs are laid out with typst inside the app: justified Literata text
    with hyphenation, a title page, a table of contents with page numbers, and page numbers
    starting at the first chapter.
  • The export window has new Language and Page size fields (A5, 6 × 9 in, A4, US
    Letter).
  • Word and OpenDocument files use novel-style paragraphs: indented, with no space between
    them, and the first paragraph after a heading or scene break not indented.
  • Exports are written atomically, so a failed export never leaves half a file behind.
    Missing images are listed in the export window.
  • metadata.yaml, reference.docx, and reference.odt keep working, including style files
    made for pandoc.
  • The pandoc and pdf_engine config options were removed; language and page_size were
    added.

Other changes

  • packaging/linux/install-local.sh installs Quillwright for your user, with its menu entry
    and icon (needed for the icon on Wayland desktops).
