#52This is really nice. One note: the landing page doesn’t mention the MIT license or commercial use. I had to go to the repo to figure it out. Would love to look into integrating this editor in our email client. Is there an easy way for us to chat?
If you're going to use it commercially, don't miss https://grapesjs.com/ It has a much more stable API, UIs and it has an MJML preset. Under a permissive BSD-3 license.
Thanks, I’ll have a look!

#53I was thinking of building something similar. Any other alternatives to similar solutions?
more of a complete CMS but has wysiwyg editing and UI blocks - https://webiny.com
Sven, the founder of Webiny here. At the moment we have a drag&drop editor, but we will soon launch a headless offering as well.

Also to add, we are the only self hosted serverless on the market. So if you want to benefit from the scalability and lower price that aws lambda provides, compared to a traditional VMs, Webiny is the way to go.

#55Looks good and am glad that editing text works on mobile (so many of these struggle with predictive text, even Google CoLabs's text boxes gets stuck on that)
However when you go to add a hyperlink on mobile, it's not adding it where the cursor is, instead adding it at the start of the current line.
Am seeing this on latest Chrome on Android 10.

#56This looks really cool but I think maybe an image on the landing page might help
The entire page is editable and a live demo. It could probably be higher up, but it is mentioned on the page.
> Try for yourself: You may not have noticed, but you are already in edit mode! Just click anywhere in the text to edit
On my screen (1080p) I have to scroll to see this and it's in plain small body text, doesn't stand out at all.

#57Earlier quoted context omitted.
Yeah, but it only makes sense to do so on a page that already is using react. If you are using some other JS framework it will add 140kb dep on react+react-dom - which might be a problem (or not depending on your use case).
Definitely a good point. Just wanted to note that you could write a renderer in some server language that outputs static HTML. And only use the editor to make that static content editable (loaded asynchronously or on a different route). The serialized state is easy to parse by design.
That is an excellent idea!
