I'm still waiting for this 7 year issue. I have doubts about how open source this is. Based on the comments, someone created a PR to support RTL, but the maintainers refused to review it.
- josephcsible 3y agoThe responsiveness of maintainers to PRs has nothing whatsoever to do with whether it's actually open source.
- hollerith 3y agoTrue: the license is the only thing that matters for whether it is open-source or not.
- slim 3y agoit could be too much effort to implement RTL

Hence many native browser capabilities might not be available. Oh, jeez, why? I want to install this just to point a screen reader at it and watch the havoc. Maybe they got that figured out but good lord...
- thayne 3y agoBecause that is basically what you have to do if you want a truly rich editor that works and looks consistently across browsers and operating systems. Maybe today you could get something to work using a combination of contenteditable and canvas, with code to handle the inconsistencies between browsers. But I know that at least a few years ago, rendering to a canvas was a necessity for rich web apps like this. Google docs at least used to be canvas based as well. I'm not sure if that is still the case.
