Liseré - a small react package with components and utilities for selecting and highlighting text.

Feedback is appreciated as I build this — so please go ahead, mess around with it and open issues if you see anything that's not working as expected or confusing:

This is basically what I was using for a lot of my older posts on here:

i didn't know I needed this, but you just got me hyped for a text highlighter phenomenal job

Thanks Igor!

Not sure but I think it's not working on iOS?

Working on mobile handlers in the next bump :)

Noice! Love it!

Would you be interested in building and maintaining a text editor?

@BustdownCar That's a pretty big one. I've tried in the past a few times for fun/personal stuff (hence my gists are litered with fluff like the image below) but now that something like exists I'm not sure how much value I could add. Bespoke ones could though.

btw, some of your buttons on the docs page are white on white!

Whoops! Good catch on that - ui components had some remnant dark classes that were causing that. Fixed 🤙

Thank you!

really good!

Only works on desktop though?

Yes for now. Working on mobile handlers in the next bump :)

This might be beneficial for my app:
