If you spend a lot of time on GitHub writing issues, PR reviews, or discussion replies, you’ve probably felt it: the default comment box is… basic.
So these past few months I’ve been working on a browser extension that replaces all GitHub comment boxes in a markdown editor using ProseMirror and ProseKit (a mention deserved due the time saved)
Here’s Better Comments for GitHub
This editor integrates all GitHub flavored markdown features with some custom UX enhancements when mentioning users, issues etc. You get slash command, bubble menu, toolbar and some improvements to code blocks, table handling (thanks ProseKit for this) and more.
One of the most useful feature I want to mention is the CodeMirror integration in JS/TS code blocks, which also allow to get TypeScript code completion with TS language server integration
Hope to get some feedbacks! Also if you want to share my X post, which also contain a one minute showcase of some feature, thanks again!
