Notes

Canvas-based rich text editing is technically hard and defensible; this project shows strong developer adoption (4.8k+ stars) and broad feature surface (PDF/LaTeX/Word-like workflows). It could become core infrastructure for browser-native document apps, EMR-style editors, and embedded editing experiences.
