rx-angular VS lexical

RFC: @rx-angular/state/signals - extended signal and new eventEmitter

It has been a while now since the Angular team has been exploring (way more than we can think) alternative reactivity models and looking for something that lies between the extremes of naive Zone.js (i.e. Zone.js without OnPush) and Zoneless Angular combined with special pipes & directives like those provided by RxAngular.

I would recommend exploring https://github.com/rx-angular/rx-angular. Contributors did a huge research about using Angular to get the best results.

It also includes RxAngular, a toolset focused on runtime performance and template rendering, and taiga-ui, an UI component library.

There is another reason not to use async pipes. If you provide 'noop' zone, async pipes will stop working. In my experience it's better to start without zones if you know that performance might be a problem in the future. Working without zones has more benefits https://github.com/rx-angular/rx-angular/blob/main/docs/general/zone/why-zone-less.md Here is the list.

Another cool lib which goes into the same direction as NgRx Component Store: https://github.com/rx-angular/rx-angular/blob/master/libs/state/README.md

Here are some examples: https://github.com/rx-angular/rx-angular/blob/master/libs/state/docs/usage.md

We also added listings using the same pattern. This is the first time we used *rxLet. It really makes working with all Observable in the templates easier do check it out. It allows you four states for an observable suspense, error. complete so that you can handle each one of them separately and gets rid of the *ngIf with async pipe. Like if you want to display something else while loading and error is a big disadvantage of the async pipe when used with an api.

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!
