    🔮 Fast and full-featured autocomplete library (by algolia)

  • The article promotes using Algolia's Autocomplete JS library to build it. Never heard of it but I'll give it a shot.

  • ProseMirror

    The ProseMirror WYSIWYM editor

  • You pretty much never need to touch contenteditable yourself, if you are going to be building a custom editor. It's still not something easy by a long shot, but using something like ProseMirror is going to be much less frustrating. (though still hard and time-consuming)

  • SurveyJS
