Developer here. I built Phaser to scratch my own itch. I took inspiration from both Trello and Pivotal Tracker, and I think the result is pretty good.

Please let me know what you think.

I signed up just to play with the in-browser vim, which is cool.

1. I can't bring up the editor on firefox. Clicking the '+' in a phase doesn't bring up the editor, etc.

2. :w doesn't work on chrome either, it gives this error: "cannot call method set of undefined" http://imgur.com/hnS1AMA

3. But still it looks like the story arc was saved: http://imgur.com/JUiuKbw and there was a 'saving..' message on the status bar suggesting that there's an autosaver. However, after reloading the page, sad face: http://imgur.com/aLSMgsE

Give me a sec to check it in Firefox. It's very alpha and I've been doing everything in Chrome.

Second Edit: Use the tab key instead of spaces to create indentation. That's what is causing the "set of undefined" error.

Edit: If you reload, then click "New Stories +", it should work. The + button on the individual phases is not working right now in Firefox. Willfix.

What did you use to integrate vim? Is it something open source or proprietary?

I used Code Mirror to get the Vim functionality: http://codemirror.net/ . It's open source.

So, its Vim keybindings, not actually Vim?

That is correct.

i think its neat. i use vim religiously and can't type/navigate without hjkl anymore, so even though this is for a small niche, its cool
