Summary

Tomoshibi is a minimalist writing application designed to help writers overcome perfectionism and writer's block by making text gradually fade as you write. The app features a dark interface with a small animated flame that responds to typing, no toolbars or menus, and automatic saving. The fading text mechanism allows for minor corrections but prevents endless rewriting, encouraging forward momentum in writing. The app is available in both English and Japanese interfaces.

Open it and there's a dark screen, a small flame. It breathes when you type. No toolbar, no menu.
Older lines fade — but not instantly. They wait until you move on. You can still fix a typo. You just can't spiral.
Everything is saved. When you come back, your last sentence is waiting.
