I needed an editor to handle all my research and corporate documents—something that supports both basic Markdown and advanced features like mindmaps and flowcharts. Draw.io is perfect for procedural diagrams, and Tiptap gives me the rich editing foundation I want.
I tried Notion, but it's sluggish (probably network issues), and I worry about lock-in or losing access to my data. Privacy is another big concern.
So, once again—why not build my own editor?
This project gives me full control:
I can tailor the workflow, customize ElasticSearch mappings for powerful search, and design every detail to fit my needs.
It also features a powerful document tree component, with search, filtering, and highlight support for matching titles. The result? Fast navigation straight to the leaf nodes. Awesome!
