Editor.js VS bangle-io

I am supporting a project where lawyers, advisors can publish articles or news, to get more attention and clients. Initially it was made through TinyMCE, but they wanted not just HTML, but also a way of showing many pictures with interactions. I was seeking UI editor like Medium, and I guess best what I found was EditorJS and during checking its Awesome List there were several carousel plugins and I stopped on this.

We call it EmailBuilder.js – a powerful block-based email builder that takes the best parts of other open source libraries like Editor.js and email component libraries and puts them into an easy to use no-code builder.

I tried the "Doc", "Sheet" and "Slide" feature and each of them are incomplete and lacks most of the popular features. It would be better if the author uses existing solutions instead of implement them from ground up.

editor.js [0] for documents and Grist [1] for spreadsheet are some good examples.

Editorjs [https://editorjs.io/]

Use Gutenberg or a block editor like this (https://github.com/codex-team/editor.js) for a CMS. The WYSIWYG days are over.

Has anyone had any luck adding editor.js to your app? I've got a plain rails/stimulus/turbo/activeStorage app which needs a dynamic page builder and editor.js looks like it has promise. However it's a pretty specialized workflow and Im not sure if it jives well with the plain Rails ecosystem.

try this: https://editorjs.io/ might come handy, it's a very nice library and it's well maintained.

Another similar tool that is open sourced and allows you to sync with GitHub [1] .

It differs by providing a WYSIWYG interface while saving content in Markdown.

Hello other text based beings!

I am very passionate about journaling/collecting one’s thoughts. In a typical HN fashion, I decided to make a tool that scratches my itch [1].

Having spent majority of my life with portable computers around, I feel we as humans are losing the joy of writing one’s thoughts out. Sometimes the best thing is to write your thought and establish this one way temporal connection to your future self. This is so beautiful because it crosses the barriers of time, culture and location. An alien human descendant billions of years in future might be able to connect with me by reading my thoughts. Writing is an intellectual marvel that has no other equivalent

What is the pain you are looking to alleviate? YMMV with notion. I think your personal reflections are probably the most important part of this because personal productivity and organization are so personal.

Single app has worked better for me. I am at 4 months of journaling and planning every day (I have used notion for a few years). When I was using desecrate apps I would go 1-3 weeks before system would fall apart.

For me the main pros are: Ability to move and copy elements from tickler to daily plan so easily. Ability to link todo's to documentation. Ability to take notes in a way that works with how I think, and ability to take handle incoming thoughts as fast as they need to be documented.

Main cons are: only "date time" construct in databases, I would prefer a "time" construct. Offline. Data portability.

> I feel like maybe this is the heart of it, having a personal cache to make a temporary mess in until you have time to clean it up later. I could see that being useful - though id want to move everything out of that place and not organize things within it

Cal Newport has a `working_memory.txt` file on every one of his desktops that he chucks random information into and then processes it at the end of the day. Maybe a system like that could be more your jam.

I might one day work up the courage to use [https://bangle.io/](https://bangle.io/) + github. Feels like owning my data + a bit more flexibility could be nice, but that seems like a lot of work.

I would suggest trying out bangle.io [1] - an opens source markdown web app that is completely local and will support GitHub based syncing.

There is also https://bangle.io - an open source web app for taking markdown notes and saving them in your computer.

Note: I’m the author of the project.

I have been using it to provide ability to read existing markdown notes in a users directory see [1]. So far it works great but browser support is limited to chrome and edge.

I have to say, this is a very well designed app.

Since you talk about local only app , I can suggest bangle.io [1] - a local only operative note taking app.
