Open Source: Texpand

Over the past couple of years the development community has been very kind to us, so we thought we’d make a little contribution back. It’s with great pleasure that we present Texpand.

What is it?

In short, Texpand is a javascript plugin that makes writing long posts easier by expanding the text input as you type. This is helpful because it prevents the user from constantly having to scroll around a text input, it also keeps your pages clean an clutter free.

On a slightly more technical note, Texpand is completely unobtrusive and degrades gracefully in browsers that don’t support javascript. Texpand is very easy to use, and by default requires zero configuration. However, it does provide a few advanced features should you want to do anything fancy.

Where can I get it?

Currently the Texpand source code and documentation is hosted on GitHub, available here:
