• SLATE Code editor with highlight

  However, I had difficulties inserting editable BLOCKS with syntax highlighting for code. Yes, there is an official example, but at least for me, it's not very clear.

• Show HN: Sendune – open-source HTML email designer

  This work looks very promising. "HTML for email" is indeed hard to design and hard to implement. Especially editing on mobile, table decices, or Asian language input nightmare.

  I do lot of email templating for B2B CRM use cases and decided to opt out for a bit different approach based on slatejs/platejs editor

• Which Rich Text Editor to use ?
  2 projects | /r/reactjs | 6 Jul 2023

  - it creates a layout based on rows and cells, so it support multi-column layout - each cell can contain a different "cell-plugin", - richt-text editor based on https://github.com/ianstormtaylor/slate is built in and comes with its own plugin system. It can do weight, italic, block-types, alignment and lists and can be extended as you want (even with elements storing data and interactive components) - you can create custom cell plugins based on a schema (or custom control ui) and a component that should be rendered - it stores an object tree that represent it, not html. It therefore can contain any react component, which is great if you want to allow your editors to add interactive components or components that you already built as part of the app - i carefully optimized for SSR and bundle size, so no editor ui is rendered nor loaded. editor ui is only loaded on the client if you disable readOnly. (lazy loading) - it mainly tested with nextjs, since i used it for content-heavy pages. - its not yet tested with react-server components, but it should actually work in read-only mode

• What is your goto WYSIWYG Editor?

  Finally there's Slate and Lexical which are super powerful in terms of customizability and extensibility. They're great options for when the editing experience plays a major role in the product.

• Looking for the best React Editor library
  6 projects | dev.to | 28 Jan 2023

  Slate, as per its documentation, is a completely customizable framework for building rich text editors. Therefore, it doesn't offer a feature-rich text editor but instead provides tools to build one. Let's create a component called Slate and see what the Slate editor looks like.

• Is there a good alternative to Draft-js rich text editor?
  4 projects | /r/reactjs | 14 Oct 2022

  Word of warning about Slate: I love the API and the design goals, but it appears to suffer from some fundamental issues. We were experiencing issues similar to this one and a team of multiple 10+ year experienced frontend devs couildn't figure out what was going on. I had to completely rip out a feature we had built with Slate and had to reimplement a new version from scratch with Lexical. So far we have no issues other than those inherent to rich text editing.

• Lexical – a web text editor framework that powers Facebook

  We're trying to choose between Lexical and Slate at work. Do you have any examples that would be similar to this? https://github.com/ianstormtaylor/slate/blob/main/site/examp...

• A good rich text editor for reactjs?
  4 projects | /r/reactjs | 23 May 2022

  If you are going to customise a ton of functionalities and/or implement new functionality I suggest using SlateJS. If not, have a look at Sun editor.
