Description
We recently hit 11k stars after almost two years and more than 1000 commits. We are looking for further contributions to continuous improve Mark Text. Mark Text is a hobby project created by @Jocs and later I (@fxha) joined this awesome project. We both love this project but our time is also limited to maintain and develop Mark Text. There are a lot of thing to do that Mark Text becomes a stable but also a fast and more performant editor.
If you are interested let us know and please comment on this issue. We are happy to invite active contributions that are working on this project, whether developing new features or help with issues. You should have JS knowledge and need an enabled two-factor authentication account. To summarize, we are looking for:
- Supporting members to help with issues and review PRs.
- Developers/Maintainers to develop new features and fix bugs (and organisational stuff like project management and releases).
- Or maybe both, depending on your available free time.
There are other things that you can do to improve Mark Text:
- Let us know you opinion about Mark Text, missing features and report bugs and problems.
- Participate in the internationalization of Mark Text and optimize or write the end user documentation. These documentation will be available via GitHub but also on our website. We'll open another issue for this if localization was added.
- 👍 features you like and discuss with us about upcoming changes and features.
Upcoming and necessary changes:
In the next time we need to make some necessary changes on Mark Text's core and refactor even more files.
- Basic end-user (features, available markdown specs., ...) and developer documentation.
- Further improvements and feature implementation.
- Refactoring the core of Mark Text called muya. This is urgently required to improve the data structure but also to improve performance and reduce memory usage. This would allow us to implement a flexible API for plugins but also improve the communication via an editor API (@Jocs is assigned for this).
You can find all planned "core" features here and a lot more via the issue tracker.
Many thanks (in advance) to everyone who giving their time to contribute to Mark Text and help this project!
Mark Text is still in development, many thing will change and feature will be added but our philosophy is to keep things clean, simple and minimal. For example our side bar and tabs: these two panels provide a lot of functionality but don't disturb the user if it's not needed. We'll add more and more feature, maybe extended by plugins, that can be activated via settings to improve Mark Text. So we allow everyone to customize Mark Text for it needs and provide a minimal default interface.
