Refactor ITU-independent functionality into “static site editor” framework #4

Closed strogonoff closed 5 years ago

strogonoff commented 5 years ago

The goal is to create an open-source framework for Electron-based static site authoring apps, and rebase itu-ob-editor on that.

The framework would provide a set of base components to build tailored site authoring GUIs on top of—quickly & with minimal code.

Those components can be roughly separated into backend and frontend. For example, backend would include Jekyll YAML compatible database adapters (possibly other generators later), frontend would include a ProseMirror-based editor scaffolding.

Further on, the end solution may require companion plugin(s) on static site generator side (e.g., to help Jekyll et al. render structured contents authored with ProseMirror as HTML).
