Hello @marijn ,

Thank you very much for ProseMirror! I’m making https://epiphany.pub , a tech blogging platform allowing embedded programs (in js and py), a mixture of Medium.com and Jupyter notebook. The website accepts markdown. The old editor was based on Monaco, but it’s too heavy and it’s not ideal to be used as a text editor. I just deployed the new markdown editor based on ProseMirror and inspirations I found in tiptap. I’m thinking open sourcing the core part of my website as a standalone editor.

I can’t implement this new editing experience without ProseMirror. There are still minor bugs I need to fix soon. They are mainly gap cursor related. For example, when a code block is the last block of an article, I can’t move the cursor to the very end of the article to add a new line, nor can I remove a code block by pressing “DEL”.

Monaco is still kept as the code editor. But I can’t wait to try the new CodeMirror.

Thanks again!

Wow~ nice job.

It really gives me confidence on my choosing prosemirror to implement my own editor, as I am struggling with its so many concepts. :grinning:

Look forward for your open source project. I am sure I can learn a lot from it.

Wow that’s one slick site!

I’m in the same boat as @jiewuza, I think prosemirror fits my requirements best, but I’m definitely struggling with the learning curve atm

Look forward to learning from your open source project!

This is great! I’m interested in the Monaco integration into ProseMirror. Did you release it as open-source eventually? Thanks!
