So it’s like Google Docs? What am I looking at exactly?
- thisisjedr 8mo agoYes, it's like Google Docs for .docx files. It's open-source, MIT-licensed, and runs fully in JS, so you can embed it in your app. Every other JS DOCX editor I found was either abandoned or commercial. I couldn't find a solid MIT-licensed option.
- arxari 8mo agoMore vibe coded slop on Show HN
- fastily 8mo agoWould be more impressive if this was done for something obscure like Microsoft Visio. Theres countless oss ms word editors/libs Claude probably ripped off
- pipeline_peak 8mo agoThe schema Visio’s files save to is very complex. There’s stuff like diagrams.net, but that’s not compatible.
- fastily 8mo agoYup that’s why I suggested it. The vsdx schema is notably complex and I don’t see a lot of code examples in the wild. I seriously doubt an llm would be able to output working code for it. Docx is a common use case and a quick google search yields multiple popular libraries that understand the format. Anyways, cool that an llm was able to output a functional docx editor, but that’s certainly not impressive or a groundbreaking feat by any means
