Here are a few ideas to improve the writing flow by further reducing some of the UI presence when interacting with blocks:

  • Moving a block up or down does not select a block (or puts it in isTyping mode`.
  • Clicking on the first block "Write your story" engages isTyping and doesn't show UI unless user continues moving the cursor under a certain threshold of time.
  • Clicking on any block doesn't show toolbar UI until the user continues moving the cursor for more than a threshold (this might be too much).
  • Clicking "Enter" on a block always engages isTyping.

Clicking on the first block "Write your story" engages isTyping and doesn't show UI unless user continues moving the cursor under a certain threshold of time.

What about if there is inaction in typing anything? I am thinking for cases where people may be lost.

Going to close this as current state seems alright.
