## Description

Papr is a calm, distraction-free writing editor for WordPress. Papr is currently
in beta and under active development.

It provides a focused environment for writing and managing posts, while WordPress
continues to handle content storage, publishing, users, and permissions. Papr is
designed for writers who want clarity while writing, without replacing WordPress
as a CMS.

Papr does not change your theme or frontend. All content is saved directly to WordPress
and remains fully compatible with the block editor and existing themes.

### How it works

 * Install and activate the Papr plugin
 * Connect your WordPress site to the Papr web application
 * Write and manage posts in a calm, focused editor
 * Publish, update, or delete posts as usual — WordPress remains the source of truth

### What Papr is

 * A focused writing environment
 * An alternative editor experience for posts
 * A companion to WordPress, not a replacement

### What Papr is not

 * A theme
 * A frontend page builder
 * A replacement for WordPress admin
 * A guaranteed preview of your site’s final appearance

### Preview behavior

Papr includes a reading-focused preview mode to help you review content calmly.

Final appearance depends on your WordPress theme and frontend styles.

### External service

Papr uses an external web application (papr.tangble.com) to provide the editor experience.

Your content is stored in your WordPress site and accessed securely using the WordPress
REST API. Papr does not modify your site’s frontend or theme.

### Pricing

Papr is free to use.
 Additional features may be introduced in the future.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `papr` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu in WordPress
 3. Go to **Papr** in the WordPress admin menu
 4. Connect your site to the Papr web application
 5. Start writing

## FAQ

### Does Papr replace the WordPress block editor?

No. Papr provides an alternative writing experience, but WordPress remains the system
of record. Posts remain editable in the block editor at any time.

### Is my content stored outside WordPress?

No. All posts, media, and metadata are stored in your WordPress site. Papr only 
accesses content you authorize.

### Does Papr affect my site’s frontend design?

No. Papr does not modify your theme or frontend output.

### Is an internet connection required?

Yes. Papr connects to your WordPress site using the REST API.

### Will Papr always be free?

Papr is free to use. Optional paid features may be introduced in the future, but
core writing functionality will remain available.
