JQuery Notebook – A Medium-like editor wrapped inside a jQuery plugin
Really nice. Great to see someone putting attention into WYSIWYG rather than yet _another_ Markdown editor. And it supports keyboard shortcuts too (cmd-B, cmd-I etc.)!
Only suggestion I'd make is to speed up the transition when the palette moves around, or maybe replace it with a fast fade in/out - the animation gets in the way.
Thanks but I think I'll stick with this little gem.
Quick note - if I delete everything in the textarea, I can't undo to get back to where I was. Strangely this is something I do often - not sure why.
Like it. Making text H1 or H2, it's impossible to make it normal text after. Is that a bug?
Interesting piece of work - 2 related scroll problems. When you paste a long piece of text in your editor: - the palette doesn't position near the text where you double click (it remains at the top of the document) - any undo action, which change text below the fold doesn't scroll the editor where the change occurs. Good luck with that promising project. Most people who took the contenteditable route to build an editor (ace and codemirror for instance), eventually decided to fully implement the editor themselves...
Love it!
But, you need lists. In fact, I'd either document the exact commands you have implemented, or implement all the commands Medium offers, since you're inspired by Medium:

I want to use this, but I need lists before I do. I'll be using it to write interviews with breweries around the world in a brewery site I'm building.
* Note: I've never used Medium, so needed to Google what commands it has to offer.
Am I the only one who reads 'wrapped inside a jQuery plugin' and thinks 'great, yet another awesome-looking library rendered completely useless'?
It's cool to hate on jQuery right now (for some odd reason), but don't let that get you down. This is an awesome start and I'll definitely be keeping an eye on it.
We do a lot of front-end editing on WordPress and this might make a handy replacement for the bulky tinyMCE that gets used.
I much prefer editing like this than in markdown!
FYI, when I hit "enter" I expect a new paragraph to be created.
How do I remove hyperlink markup from a piece of text?
This is cool. Is there anyway you could get markdown (or some similar format) to work with it. Essentially this (http://mangomarkdown.com/) but open source. That would be awesome!
Nice plugin. There is another project( https://github.com/sofish/pen) similar to this that supports lists and also can be used with markdown
Love it, very nicely done. The only issue I have is with the animation (movie the popup from the previous position to the current one). It looks nice but it's off-putting. A fade-in/out would work fine.
Is it just me or is there a lot of spacing in between lines? Every time I hit return, it feels like I've hit 3 returns.
Overall, impressive! Would pay for a quality and light one of these.
You can't press Enter to line break. Was that intended?
I wonder if anybody would wrap this into a open-source wiki project.
I'm currently looking at open alternatives to Confluence, haven't found anything that's as easy to use on the editing front.
I'm surprised no one has tried to emulate Quip's editor yet
It didn't work on android Browser, what a bad.
CKEditor 4 also supports inline editing like this.
very nice.
