Description
Lexical consists of multiple editor instances, each corresponding to a specific content-editable element. It features a variety of editor states that capture both the current and upcoming conditions of the editor at any moment. Designed to be universally accessible, Lexical adheres to the best practices outlined in WCAG, ensuring compatibility with screen readers and various assistive technologies. The framework is intentionally minimalistic, as it does not directly deal with user interface components, toolbars, or rich-text functionalities, which can be integrated through a plugin system. Getting started with Lexical is remarkably simple in any setting. Although it is framework agnostic, Lexical offers a collection of bindings for React that facilitate a quicker setup process. Once you’ve completed the initial configuration, the user-friendly APIs allow for the easy development of custom features, making the experience not only efficient but also enjoyable. This approach empowers developers to create tailored solutions without being bogged down by unnecessary complexity.
Description
The Editing team's VisualEditor initiative strives to develop a dependable rich-text editor for MediaWiki. This editor, which can be utilized as a MediaWiki extension with the assistance of the Parsoid project for HTML+RDFa, is designed in such a way that its core functionality can operate independently of MediaWiki, Parsoid, or Node.js. Since 2020, VisualEditor has been accessible to all users on MediaWiki.org and is also available on nearly all versions of Wikipedia and Wikivoyage. For many other Wikimedia projects and languages, it functions as an optional Beta Feature for logged-in users. Although VisualEditor is accessible in certain namespaces, such as the main namespace, it is typically not available in discussion or template namespaces. The issue of declining new contributor growth is perceived as one of the most significant challenges confronting the Wikimedia movement. To address this, VisualEditor was developed to eliminate unnecessary technical barriers related to Wikimedia's editing interface, which is seen as essential for boosting the number of contributors to Wikimedia projects. By simplifying the editing process, the project aims not only to enhance user experience but also to foster a more inviting environment for potential contributors.
