Since Vrite (and Vrite Editor for that matter) is currently in Public Beta, new features and improvements are in active development. The best way to try it out right now is through the hosted version at app.vrite.io (free while in Beta) with better self-hosting support in the works.

By referencing the ProseMirror docs, forwarding the editor state back and forth, and adjusting the layout, I managed to integrate Monaco Editor — the web editor extracted from VS Code — together with Prettier (for code formatting) right into the Vrite Editor (I know, that’s a lot of editors in one place 😅).

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.

Something that I always felt was lacking in WYSIWYG editors (even the top ones, like Notion) is good support for code editing. Granted, technical writing is a niche use-case and you can get by with simple syntax highlighting and some copy-pasting. That said, I wanted to try something else — I wanted to integrate a full-blown code editor.

To handle pasting block Markdown content like this, I had to tap into ProseMirror and implement a custom mechanism (though somewhat based on TipTap’s paste rules), detecting starting and ending points of the blocks and parsing them with Marked.js.
