SimpleMDE behaves strangely on mobile #287

Closed mkalam-alami closed 6 years ago

The comment box is completely erratic, with space being cancelled and backspace seemingly serving as a copy/paste of sorts. Super weird

EDIT: Confirmed to have similar issues on the SimpleMDE demo

Not the first SimpleMDE bug. Combined with the fact that we have two different CodeMirror versions embedded now^{[citation needed]}, maybe a reason to see if there's something better out there?

Leaving this here

https://github.com/nhnent/tui.editor ==> also uses CodeMirror but doesn't have issues

I have started to look into the TUI Editor a bit on branch tui-editor.

It uses CodeMirror as well so it still needs your #193 fix, but it doesn't have the SimpleMDE issue on Android.

EDIT: On the other hand that TUI Editor thing is kinda heavy, with 2MB+ of JS.

EDIT2: Given we've closed the issue, the branch is now deleted, it was early & broken stuff anyway.

This was fixed by the EasyMDE fork (found at the bottom of https://github.com/sparksuite/simplemde-markdown-editor/issues/408), which was a drop-in replacement. Switching to a more active project would still be good, but it's less a priority now.

Closing this, #215 will let us look closely at that possible double CodeMirror issue.
