ZenPen is a very Zen editor for people who wants a minimalist style, the Zone feeling.

Minimal Distraction, Maximum Zen

It has full-screen mode with dark theme to make you more comfortable writing in a dim environment. It utilizes HTML5 Local Storage, so everything you type is kept on your computer only.

The text styles includes bold, italics, link, and block quote.

You can set up a word-count target from the menu on the left, it grows higher as word count goes up. Once your word count reaches that goal, the yellow bar becomes green and you know you have just achieved objective in terms of word count.

The text is saved always, so it’s safe to close as you please. You can export the text to three different formats via Ctrl+C or downloading a file, Markdown, HTML, and text, Here is the exact copy of Markdown:
