Fyi, if you are ever looking for a fun project you might be able to implement this. The vscode editor source is available as a library https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/
I am supporting a project where lawyers, advisors can publish articles or news, to get more attention and clients. Initially it was made through TinyMCE, but they wanted not just HTML, but also a way of showing many pictures with interactions. I was seeking UI editor like Medium, and I guess best what I found was EditorJS and during checking its Awesome List there were several carousel plugins and I stopped on this.
Project mention: Show HN: A note-keeping system on top of Fossil SCM | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-10-25I used a note system built on top of Fossil as my primary system for quite a while. Here are the details in case anyone is interested.
Fossil allows CGI extensions[1]. There's a database for tickets, but that's just a regular SQLite table that you can use to store anything you want, and it's version controlled and queryable. I stored the notes plus metadata in the tickets database. The CGI returned HTML with the Ace editor for creating/editing notes.[2] Notes were stored using the command line.[3] I needed to add the web server user to the sudoers file to access the Fossil binary.
There were two reasons to use Fossil for this. The biggest was that it handled authentication. The second is that I had a version controlled database to do all the work for me.
I think I eventually moved away from it because I prefer working locally. The "transition" was dumping the data out of the database and into markdown files.

What does this bring that the Quasar framework doesn’t already? This sure looks like an ad for a barely preconfigured quasar template—but it’s impossible to tell.

Trix is simple and easy to use for basic writing like a blog. It’s what Basecamp and HEY both use (it was built by 37signals and is the default in Rails)

A step in that direction can be seen in TOAST UI editor:
Project mention: Software Company HashiCorp Is Weighing a Potential Sale | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-16Also, no BuSL stupidity, they're all Apache 2 AFAIK: https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community/blob/idea/23...
And the "all you can eat" toolbox license is just a staggeringly good deal, IMHO, which also comes with a "you can keep your license forever, just no updates" which is way different from setting subscription-based licensing money on fire when your license expires. Whoever came up with that should be applauded because it really drives down my "what about" anxiety of paying subscription money for IDEs
The MediumEditor clone looks great, but I wanted a traditional toolbar and the last commit it seems was 3+ years ago.
Project mention: CudaText: Cross-platform, open source code editor written in Object Pascal | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-06-13I mostly work on MacOS these days and previously my general purpose text editor wax Textmate: https://github.com/textmate/textmate
Last official release was 2021, so I looked for something more regularely updated, and found CudaText. Definitely very Sublime-ish, and I like it so far.
