#52Are we expecting any major announcements today in the vein of React Native?
They open-sourced their content-editable component, which sounds very impressive (basically, "let's fix content-editable once and for all") http://facebook.github.io/draft-js/
For an "let's fix content-editable once and for all" affair, I don't think the initial widget they present on that page could be any more underwhelming.

#53Facebook developers are arrogant. Developers from google are more humble and down to earth!
Yeah, especially the Go guys /s.

Thanks, that's valuable feedback. What would you suggest instead?
The goal is that with Draft.js you can easily build any UI you want and Draft.js helps you manage the underlying model and DOM manipulations.
I am sure that several people will build and publish drop-in components using Draft.js within days.

Yes, but alas you have so much greater things to care about than us, that it's surprising you even took the time to comment on this thread.

Well, something closer to CKEditor or, if you prefer minimal, something like the editor in Medium.com.

Yet another rich text editor that requires lock-in with a particular library or framework. Web components can't come soon enough.
Well, you definitely don't have to use React for the rest of your app if you don't want to – you can use a Draft component inside any web app. You could also use the underlying Draft model and manage the view entirely yourself, but React helps a lot here and removes a lot of complexity from Draft.
As opposed to just dropping into my page? No thanks.

#58Sorry if I missed it, are there links to any kind of further reading or discussion regarding what Ben Alpert (spicyj) mentioned about implementing layouts in React? I do a lot of render -> dom-measure -> re-render and it's not the greatest. Would love to dive deeper into what the React team has in mind.

Makes sense. I'd be proud if I was behind React and humble if I was behind Angular
You're comparing the wrong things. The correct comparison would be with Polymer, which Google is pouring far more resources into than Angular.
I'd be humble about Polymer too

So create a web component that wraps draft.js?
