I was thinking a different, more featureful editor than plain <textarea>. Just thinking that because I was looking into something else, and it seemed there might be a connection.
I think Mediawiki uses the Ace editor.
My use case was "I need a text editor that doesn't suck, maybe my wiki can have a nicer text editor at the same time, that way I can kill multiple birds with one stone."
Also, I was playing with Circuitpython-online-IDE earlier that day, which got the wheels turning.
vim.wasm seems way too heavy, though. It's... vim, compiled into WASM.
Codemirror (https://codemirror.net) and Ace (https://ace.c9.io) came up as perhaps having minimal suck.

@sbrl
Ahhhh, I see
Hmmmmm
something that's dedicated to markdown would be nice
I've seen a few around
codemirror IIRC is quite heavy
The Doctor
@virtadpt
408 kilobytes, split between the CSS and the .js file. That's as big as my index.html file.
That's a no.
Starbeamrainbowlabs
@sbrl
Yep, that's a lot
it would almost double the download size of Pepperminty Wiki as a whole
prosemirror may be an option though
https://prosemirror.net/
We'd need to implement support for all the custom syntax that Pepperminty Wiki provides though
mainly the extensions to the image syntax
Starbeamrainbowlabs
@sbrl
The package comes out as ~50.9KiB, but I bet you could easily half that using Rollup + tree shaking
Pepperminty Wiki isn't kitted out including complex JS like that though
would require some effort there
oh and wow, some of prosemirror's dependents on npm look awesome
For example https://milkdown.dev/#/
The Doctor
@virtadpt
Prosemirror looks pretty cool. The custom syntax could be implemented as a plugin for it.
Tree shaking?
Milkdown does look cool.
Starbeamrainbowlabs
@sbrl
Yeah, it does, doesn't it?
Ah, tree shaking is a technique that can be used in Javascript build systems. It analyses the code automatically and removes dead code that isn't actually used
very handy when you're using a relatively large library!
sadly implementing Rollup support into Pepperminty Wiki would be a challenge haha
so I tend to use libraries that provide a single file already built that I can include in the extra data system Pepperminty Wiki uses
The Doctor
@virtadpt
Okay. I've never heard of that before. Good to know.
That makes sense.
Starbeamrainbowlabs
@sbrl
:-)
Adding support for it in Pepperminty Wiki would mean adding a dependency on Node.js in the build system
The Doctor
@virtadpt
...huh. I thought you could just wget the .js blob it from the CDN and reference it in HTML.
That's what I did with my site's skin.
Starbeamrainbowlabs
@sbrl
Yeah, if that's possible we can do that in Pepperminty Wiki.
Not exactly like that of course, as I use the extra data function to make it such that Pepperminty Wiki does not need an Internet connection on the server to work
The Doctor
@virtadpt
That makes sense.
Hmm.
What about this: For my website themes, I check the .js that I'm using into Git alongside the rest of it, so that it's always there.
https://github.com/virtadpt/pelican-html5up-striped/tree/master/static/assets/js
I don't know if it'd be a good option, but it is an option.
Starbeamrainbowlabs
@sbrl
Hmmmm
I don't recommend checking the JS in alongside there
Rather, the gold standard is to use npm and package.json
....but Pepperminty Wiki's architecture doesn't lend itself well to that
yet

@sbrl
Update to the Android app: full-text search support!
I've also clicked the button to roll this rewrite out to open testing
so everyone should get it after it's been reviewed and stuff
The Doctor
@virtadpt
Early access users can get it right now. I was playing with it last night, and it's really nice.
Starbeamrainbowlabs
@sbrl
Thanks!
Now I just have page history and page editing to go
both of these are unlikely to be simple though
