Implement first-party connectors for popular OSS editors

[CharlieDigital]

Currently, there are no easily located examples of how to integrate Fluid with one of the most common use cases: collaborative editors. It would be great to have a concrete example of how to implement at least one integration to an OSS editor for a collaborative editing experience with more documentation.

There are two examples that I can find in the repo:

• Monaco
• ProseMirror
• SimpleMDE

However, these are a bit lacking in documentation and perhaps not close enough to fully a fully functional reference implementation for popular editors.

Ideally:

• It should provide a complete reference implementation to a popular OSS edtior (Quill, TipTap, Lexical, etc.)
• It should provide a demo site and detailed documentation to help other implementation teams of common issues when integrating text editing experiences
• It should provide common features like cursor position, editing, commenting (?)
• It should provide a reference server implementation that demonstrates how to synchronize client state to/from a backend for persistence

This space is currently dominated by Yjs and it's not clear if it is because Fluid cannot achieve this (as in the OT approach is not suitable for highly dynamic text editing scenarios) or that there is simply no implementation of it. Having at least one reference implementation would provide evidence that it works and can be achieved.

Popular open source editors include:

• Quill
• TipTap
• Lexical

This is a very common use case for startups and enterprises and currently all of these use Yjs as the mechanism of collaborative synchronization.
