Minimal app for Google Docs

Please note: This app is no longer maintained. You can achieve the same thing with Distration Free Mode Chrome Extension and web shortcut.

When I write, I won't tolerate any distractions. Google Docs is great, but by default has too many panels visible. Even full screen won't hide them all. So I created this small app for distraction free writing experience.

My preferred fonts are: Helvetica Neue for headings, Gill Sans or Libre Baskerville on paragraphs.

OR Avenir for everything. Avenir is awesome!
