One thing i was thinking would be also cool is improving the image view (when you open .png url for example).it would be nice if it had proper smooth zoom using mouse wheel, and some preset zoom buttons for fit to screen, 1 to 1 pixel, etc. Maybe it could also open image links in just some simple popup window.

Other than that i would really like updated bookmark and history manager.


So much this. Also the ability to change the background from black to white (with a slider or an easy to reach color picker that doesn't involve opening the console). It's so hard to notice when an image starts and ends when it has black at the sides, or to be able to distinguish transparent pixels easily.


Yes! The image zoom levels always bothered me, particularly the fact that it snaps to the size of the view vertically but not horizontally, making it hard to comfortably read vertically heavy images or use portrait-orientation displays.


A way to rotate images without having to resort to the inspector and transform:rotate(...) would be nice as well there.


https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/better-image-vie... works reasonably well but doesn't have all the features you mentioned.


Yes! I used to have an extension that allowed you to resize any image (even in the middle of a page) by holding a button and scrolling. It was fantastic, but was never migrated to the new extension format unfortunately.


maybe it would be possible to use part of another editor like you mention summernote or maybe tinymce, to process the pasted text, and convert it to something (styled html?) a newer editor could understand?


hi, i would just want to ask a few questions if that's ok.

i see you use ck editor, how was integrating it with page builder? because i was making something similar some time ago and it was a pain to find a solution for inline editor. and how do you host users projects ? i mean is it all in one one virtual machine or something?


> i see you use ck editor, how was integrating it with page builder?

I made a plugin for the editor and is open source https://github.com/artf/grapesjs-plugin-ckeditor so try to check it out

> how do you host users projects ? i mean is it all in one one virtual machine or something?

Yeah, kind of


Well, you can as well call javascript code and use any node package from net core

That what made my decision to use dotnet core for web app


i am interested in something like this, if i can ask a few questions,

- is azure beginner friendly, for someone who has never done web app before?

- how does azure pricing and support turn out compared to other services mentioned around here?

- would it be easy as well to use PostgreSQL or some other database?

I am a young programmer, student, front end developer/designer, with some knowledge of languages such as java, php.

I am developing one electron app, and it is going great. And I don't even know javascript that much. But in my case, usage of browser engine is essential, since it has to do with rendering HTML and so on. I have less than 1000 lines of javascript and almost everything was working after 2 weeks.

It is not that big of a project anyway, but from the begging I knew that it should be fairly easy and doable.

In fact, I can imagine that I could do so many kinds of apps with electron, and I can easily see how I would approach it.

Let's say music player. No problem. I believe that electron can easily play media, and it would all look great. Or some productivity tool, or note taking app. Working with files, editing text files, even viewing documents like .pdf would be easy (would just use some plugin). Or even embedding youtube videos in notes would be easy. And all that with easy control of layout and great rendering of fonts and images, plus animations.

With little knowledge of front end stuff, and some general programming principles, you can already see how you could build app on the top of electron, which is a platform everyone here knows without even trying. It makes me feel kind of powerful to be able to do such a nice apps myself.


but if there was something exciting like red-lang with easy to do custom UI ( if needed ) and with some ecosystem around it, i would definitely look into it
