Switching editor lib as QuillJS is dead
EvitanRelta opened this issue · comments
QuillJS hasn't had any release since 2019. A few of their recent pull-request have been approved (indicating some activity), but there's currently 1.1k open issues (indicating the repo isn't well-maintained) and there's no release date for the next version (v2.0.0). There's also many Issues on their Github asking if QuillJS is dead (eg. 1, 2, 3, 4)
The documentation for customisation is also IMO lacking.
There's also features that we need (eg. image resizing, insert image via URL, nested codeblocks/quotes, set language for syntax highlighting etc.) that QuillJS doesn't support; and many 3rd-party QuillJS modules that implements those feats. (eg. quill-image-resize-module) are outdated and don't work anymore.
Thus, we should switch our rich-text editor library. Some libraries were suggested on a QuillJS's issue, including:
- TipTap
- Editor.js
- Jodit (or its React Wrapper ver.)
TipTap seems dying too...
