Yes share settings is via Google Drive sharing preferences. DropBox and GitHub have some kind of user permissions as well. With CouchDB, user permissions are set for the whole database, not per document.
It took me a long time to figure how StackEdit worked. I wrote up how to share here:
Click on the link. This will open an app in your browser.
Click OK, GRANT and, if necessary, login to Google Drive.
To add comments, select some text, and click on the icon that appears in the left margin.
By default, other users won’t know who you are; it will just say “Someone”. To let people know who comments, you need to join Google+
At the right, click Workspaces
Click Add a Google Drive backed workspace
Leave Folder ID blank and click OK
Let’s rename and share that new folder:
Now you can go back to StackEdit and copy the URL in the address bar and send that to others.
Does this Google Drive sharing work anymore?
It appears that the latest version of StackEdit saves into my Google Drive App Data folder, which is hidden. And as far as I can tell I can’t share that with anyone (I can’t even see the folder without some elaborate workarounds which suggests Google Drive doesn’t want me to have access to it).
Also, the “Copy Workspace URL” button only seems to bring up the main link (https://stackedit.io/app). I’m not sure if this is just because I only have the 1 workspace. Did this used to allow me to share the workspace with others?
