This package offers a pure Elm text editor. It relies heavily on prior work of Martin Janiczek and Sidney Nemzer. It is a pleasure to acknowledge their work.
There will be real documentation at some point. For now, if you want to use this editor package the best way is to see how it is used in the demo app.
The editor contains both "in-editor" features and hooks for using it in a host app.
I appreciate feedback. Please post issues, feature requests, comments as an issue on Github
Run the demo and experiment with the editor:
The "landing page" explains many features of the editor. The editor lives in the left-hand window of the demo app. You can write text there in either
a dialect of Markdown (Markdown/Math) that can handle equations written in LaTeX.
or MiniLaTeX, a subset of LaTeX
The source text will be rendered on the fly to Html, as you will see in the right-hand window.
cd ./demo
npm install
npm startThe present package, jxxcarlson/elm-editor, supersedes
jxxcarlson/elm-text-editor. Better to use this one!
Vim mode: just a barebones start on this. The plan is to do a bit more between now and April 25, then see how much of Vim we can add at the hackathon in Paris
Under consideration: an Electron version. I know nothing about doing this, so if anyone wants lend a helping hand, that would be great. We might also try this at the hackathon.
