- lostlogin 3y ago> work like Word This instantly makes me think about spending 20 minutes trying to get a picture to stay where I put it and have text neatly formatted. Word peaked some time ago and I don’t even know what it is now. The app? The online thing? The teams thing? They aren’t actually fully compatible and it’s awful.
- Turing_Machine 3y ago> work like Word. I haven't used Word much for a while, but the first thing that came to mind here was "You mean like typing a comma and suddenly your picture moves 15 pages away?". :-) That said, this is pretty neat. I'm not wild about Monaco because it was crap on mobile the last time I looked (which has also admittedly been a while... at that time, anyway, CodeMirror was the only one I could find that didn't suck on mobile), but still, this appears to be a very worthy project for its use case.
- reportgunner 3y ago> ... rest of the world just expect things to work like Word While having absolutely no idea how to actually use Word.
