Building Editors in the Browser
summary
A drop‑in rich text editor called Quill provides a real operational API not just innerHTML access: methods like getContents, getText, getSelection, and mutators insertText deleteText formatText produce deltas that make incremental updates possible. A tiny loop converts getContents output into Markdown. The link tooltip is replaceable so apps can swap in a custom search UI. An autocomplete translation interface (Stanford project) plugs in and runs successfully using Quill events.
