       Ask HN: What happened with Zas Editor?
        
       Just a few months back this was on frontpage of HN:
       https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30952084. It looked like a
       promising new text editor but the website https://www.zeditor.app
       doesn't exist anymore.  Did anyone purchase it? I am curious if the
       project got abandoned because it did not get much traction or if it
       was some sort of scam.
