easy-markdown-editor VS lexical

Otherwise I've been using EasyMDE, seems to be going OK.

FWIW, I'm using EasyMDE as the markdown editor in Django Admin for my site.

I'm using the Easy Markdown Editor by ionaru.

Hi u/tiimedilation, this appears to be intentional as the underlying displays which formatting style was applied to the text in real time. The Markdown Pro editor is derived from the Easy Markdown Editor. If you'd like to submit a request for this feature, please create a thread in the EasyMDE repo's issues tab.

Questions and answers are written in Markdown. For this I have a SFC that imports and wraps EasyMDE:

To make sure things did not diverge, I needed to pick a specification and stick with it. Thankfully, EasyMDE already followed Commonmark, it was Blackfriday that was a little buggy.

I remember using https://github.com/facebook/lexical for a project a year ago and mostly things worked our of the box.

Any reason to prefer quill?

Lexical (https://lexical.dev/) is really nice to use and doesn't use Prosemirror or CKEditor.

I've tried to get to grips with Lexical but found the docs pretty hard to follow. It definitely seems to offer pretty heaps of power, just unlocking that seemed tricky. We're hoping to use it for customer facing collaborative list product that allows for richer media (video, code blocks etc.)

Yes, it uses the Lexical framework internally, so markdown gets converted to an AST, then the AST gets serialized back.

Rich text editing doesn't imply pagination. Contenteditable is not abandoned. Lexical[1], Meta's framework for text editing relies on contenteditables.

lexical is a framework for building web based text-editors ... so yea it can do formatting but if you are using it to just do formatting you are very much using the wrong tool.

Haven't tried it out myself, but it's probably Lexical.

Svelte just got a lot more interesting! Dominic who is the creator of LexicalJs and InfernoJs (which is known to be insanely fast) has joined the svelte core team and is now working at Vercel full time! Here is the announcement on Twitter!
