rich-textarea VS tiptap

The Editor: The core of our app is the editor. We need an easy to use and robust rich text editor, that supports all of the features we want such as: headings, lists, placeholders, markdown, color, images, bold italic etc… For this we will use @10play/tentap-editor which is a rich text editor for react native based on Tiptap.

A WYSIWYG rich-text editor using tiptap2 and Element Plus for Vue3

You can build a Notion-like editor on top of https://tiptap.dev :-) Here is a demo of what such an editor might look like: https://demos.tiptap.dev/

Since Tiptap is headless, you have the freedom to design and develop the UI exactly the way you want.

The first link shows a discussion that started in July 2020, when Tiptap was only available in version 1. The new major version 2, which is a complete rewrite, was in development. The biggest drawback the GitLab engineers had was the lack of a test suite in Tiptap 1. That's understandable, because as a key component of your application, testing is necessary to ensure that you catch breakable changes. Tiptap 2 does just that. [1]

No good tool is built without using good tools, and Vrite Editor is no different. Before getting into WYSIWYG editors, I extensively researched available RTE frameworks, that could provide the tooling and functionality I was looking for. Ultimately, I picked TipTap and underlying ProseMirror — IMO, the best tools currently available for all kinds of WYSIWYG editors.

Nodejs has hocuspocus (built on prosemirror) (https://www.npmjs.com/package/@hocuspocus/server) using tiptap (https://tiptap.dev/), are there any similar alternative backends in Go?

If you're in need of a solid editor library for your next project, be sure to check out Tiptap. It's an open-source project, and we always appreciate feedback and contributions!

The buttons had to be absolutely positioned, which required both a custom TipTap extension and tapping deeper into the underlying ProseMirror (both libraries powering the Vrite editor).
