Editor.js
Editor.js is a block-style rich text editor that organizes document content into an ordered array of independent, modular data objects. By replacing monolithic HTML strings with a structured, machine-readable JSON format, it decouples the content creation process from the final presentation layer.
The editor functions as a browser-based orchestration layer that manages user input, focus, and state synchronization across individual blocks. Its architecture is built on a plugin-driven system where external modules register themselves to handle specific content types, providing custom rendering logic and data serialization. A central event bus coordinates these plugins, allowing developers to extend the editor with custom functionality and specialized media tools.
This modular approach supports headless content management, enabling the creation of rich text documents that are easily rendered across multiple platforms. The project provides a framework for building custom editing interfaces by combining reusable components that handle distinct text and media blocks.
