I have a bit of an obsession with finding the fastest way to launch apps. My goal is to be able to create fully functional MVP's and proofs of concept in less than a day. That means being able to spin up a backend and then implement a frontend as efficiently as possible. For the backend, PocketBase has been my favorite lately. On the frontend I am still trying to find a winner. I like Quasar (VueJS + Capacitor) which is fantastic for web apps, but falls a bit short for mobile apps. I've been eyeing React Native lately especially since Expo offers a ton of great plugins like Location and also supports remote updates.

Project mention: Show HN: Unforget, the note-taking app I always wanted: offline first, encrypted | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-06-11Any plans on integrating something like this? - https://simplemde.com/ when the notes get heavy, I prefer a simpler wysiwyg editor than to keep up with markdown syntax, especially if my notes contain tables etc.

While Storyblok and Builder.io offer full-page editing experiences with structured CMS capabilities, Tiptap takes a different approach. It’s not a traditional page builder but rather an embeddable headless editor built on ProseMirror. This means that instead of giving you a predefined UI to work with, it provides the underlying logic, leaving you in full control of the interface, interaction and level of functionality you want to provide in your page builder.

OK I have to say I have never thought about what should happen if you try to select a sequence of text that mixes rtl and ltr languages. It's deeply in my mental zone of "undefined behavior, I don't even have an intuition about what to do."
One of the more fun programming projects I ever worked on was a custom text editor. Mainly it supported rich annotations that could be applied to any chosen term or stretch of text. It used Mobiledoc[1] which already provided pretty well-developed primitives for rich text editing on the web, and it was still a complicated project, even with a solid framework.
